i've been practicing silence for one too many a day
like resin is to violins your absence makes me fray
and all i ever hid behind the clouds will rain on me so proudly
what i wanted to say to you is you were everything
and now the storm has broken
a swarm of what i wouldn't say
the only thing that i needed
the one thing that kept you away
and all i see kaleido-focused
in perfect timing past its prime
what i wanted to say to you is you were everything
even now my acquiescence leaves me shaken in your presence
i was what i thought you'd need
saddle up your trusty steed and ride, ride, ride
and all the smells and all the sounds are swirling ceaseless ‘round me
what i wanted to say to you is you were everything
