Why?
Explain yourself.
You say you've got this story to tell.
A story I don't know so well.
But I've heard it all before,
every lie... every breath...
it's all the same from the grave.
You say you've got this story to tell.
The one I already know so well.
The lie, the truth,
How am I to comprehend,
the difference of the breath?
Why?
Explain yourself.
It's something I want to know
and something you won't show.
The reason why...
you love me so.
You've lied,
You've left,
You've tortured,
and you've slowed.
So why?
Explain yourself.
"I'm in pain here.
I want you;
But I don't want this pain.
I want you;
But I can't have you.
And that only make me want you more.
And now that you're not alone.
And now that you're there, not here.
I know... it's hopeless for me."
So says the lie, the hopeless breath.
But did you love?
Did you lie?
Did you truly die inside?
When I closed my eyes,
took that breath,
and shattered my own heart,
against the cold iron walls,
of selfless regret,
Did you... whisper in the night?
Did you weep against the light?
Did you hide your face unseen?
Did you turn to me...
to whisper once again.
"I love you...
come back."
And hold my hand, like never before.
The heart needs...
what the heart can never have.
And you prove that with hopeless stares,
into the night, into the stars,
into the soul that isn't there.
Why weren't you this way before?
With your hopeless voice,
and your words so sweet,
and these things I never knew.
But it's a lie...
it can't be true.
You've said it all before.
You say... you've got this story to tell...
and if I hear it, will you have more to tell?
Oh, but I know it all so well...
Your heart beats faster.
Your eyes shine blue.
And I know it's only you.
The heart wants...
but the heart is just a fool.
