Don't say it aloud
But my tears have all dried and frozen, waiting
Whole months in the black
'Till my yesterdays joined and started feeling new
There's comfort in the panic of watching love blur and skew
I'm now finally moving along
Needed someone to cling to when I met the drop
Oh, I swayed from longing to apathy in a breath
Certain of nothing but the next cigarette
At the drop, at the closing of the pits
Oh, I felt the sting of love's once hidden whip
Then you came
Out the grey
You stumbled in
Built a bed
Cut my hair and
Shaved my face
I felt her slipping away like a stone at the surface of your
Beautiful lake
Now I can't remember (I kept all my hurt)
The autumn rains (For the good it serves)
The scratching of winter (God, how used and trite)
The fallen days (Shake when you see it)
Oh, baby, you're killing all tought of her softly
We woke in the morning to Glen Travis Campbell
And I swear, I've never felt so new
Oh, I'm so smitten by you
Darling, Miss matador
Beautiful semaphore
You could convince me that nothing else matters at all
Don't say it aloud
But my tears have all dried and frozen, waiting
Whole months in the black
'Till my yesterdays joined and started feeling new
There's comfort in the panic of the blur and skew
I chased every feeling to empty for you
Now I can't remember (I kept all my hurt)
The autumn rains (For the good it serves)
The scratching of winter (God, how used and trite)
The fallen days (Shake when you see it)
Oh, baby, you're killing all tought of her softly
We came down that morning to Glen Travis Campbell
And I swear, I've never felt so new
Oh, I'm so smitten by you
And now that last year's love has hardened and set
Like veins of turquoise through stone
I realise that walking away was the closest we had ever got
And that childish perception I had was merely
A broken eyepiece resting on a broke nose
Dying to be shown
Well you fixed me a lens and refused the retreat
Brushed away the old shards with the crumbs on your sheets
Picked up the dream from where it hung
Tucked it behind your ear and said
"Darling, that's quite enough"
