Her lies were waves i floated on Her silence was a blanket Her stare was bitter poison And with no choice left i drank it I struggled in her gentle grasp But couldn't break her hold Each tiny breath betrayed her bidding I'd obey untold She scribbled sometimes in her book And never let me see I'd sneak up behind her And she'd close it silently I waited through the april rains And thought i heard her say Through the thunder - i'll be here If you stick around till may I turned around to see atlantis sinking in the mud And now the puddles fill with water thicker than my blood I won't live to see tomorrow i've gotten here too soon I see the writing is eroding before reading the last rune Her eyes were slivers of the sun In brightness she grew bolder She pressed me for my secret And with no choice left i told her She struggled in my gentle grasp But not to break my hold In rapt anticipation of What fate had left untold all day I sit in the sun See how the damage is done phone rings, but I'm not the one to run, run, run
