lyrics

Slow from your eyes
You hold in these tears
Slow sink or die
While you've wasted these years
Passing you by
The chance to be cared
When you decide
You'll find me here
No safe surprise
When the whole world stands still
Looking back on the old
Chances are I'm seeing something different
Forget the past
I've been told hide the scars
That are bringing you down
Understand there's a point
To a spark that's lighting your affliction
You have my all my heart
Make a decision
Out from the old
A brand new beginning
A love that's untold
But the story's written
Weep for what you can't
Plead your deposition
Another waking pass
And still you get convicted
I see the envy in your eyes
And I know what you're thinking
Maybe I know something you don't care to know
You'll never know how I feel
This secret; I'll keep it
