Reticence

All the words I meant to say
All the ways to sing your praise
Every one of them dies in my heart
I’m all alone but I’ve got to start

Reticence is another way to say
I can’t bear the loss or feel the pain
I’m sure that I lost some time ago
The uphill climb to push this stone

Left me all alone
Beneath the tree home away from home
Breaking down what was me
If you’re real then I’m a fantasy

One life I’d like to be
The sole provider of the sympathy
Not again put away the game
The charm is gone now it’s all so plain

Rats will crawl and birds will fly
The cycle plays more than once or twice
Tell me what this all means
Is death the end or an eternity?

Demons take up my rage they start to march
My pulse sets the pace my soul provides the chart
War starts without an enemy
The army turns and it stares at me

Reticence is another way to say
I can’t bear this cross another day
I’m sure I lost some time ago
My soul was ground beneath my stone

Take me far away
Somewhere we could leave behind decay
No roads, no ties to life
Just you and me and something new in sight

Let me have my dreams
Your logic kills all it cannot see
Without faith, without belief
What’s the point of a life so brief

Cats will claw but birds will fly
The cycle plays more than once or twice
Tell me what this all means
Is death the end or an eternity?
