5a- I'd Die

[bicyclingfish]

"5a- I'd Die"

I listen to the streets for her whisper,
I hear the symphony to catch her line.
Write me again, me faraway love, speak to me again
Because I'd die to be the lie.

You watched me travel,
you watched me grow
you heard me on the lonely nights
you listened to my soul

Listen to me say that its my whole life
I don't know what to do without you
I wander the streets
I roam through the fields
I climb all the mountains
I walked alone this whole time
And I'd still die to be the lie

If we never were to meet again
If I never saw your face
If we never stood atop the world once more
I'd stand here in this place
Swearing off the universe and all its gifts
I'd stand alone forever more
I'd die to be the lie

You boarded a train that headed to a sorry land
You left in a box bound for destiny
who's to say when my time will come around
But when I die, when I die...
I'll be with you again, and we'll make true this lie.

I'm tired of being here at a loss
The edges have worn from my love
Dreams fell of my shoulders
Laughs fell out from my lips
I've died to be the lie...
