Tell me once again:
I could have been anyone, anyone else
Before you made the choice for me.
My feet knew the path--
We walked in the dark, in the dark.
I never gave a single thought
To where it might lead.All those empty rooms:
We could have been anywhere, anywhere else
Instead I made a bed with apathy.
My heart knew the weight
Of ten years worth of dust and neglect--
We made our peace with weariness
And let it be.The moon will sing a song for me,
I loved you like the sun,
Bore the shadows that you made
With no light of my own.
I shine only with the light you gave me
I shine only with the light you gave meName your courage now
You could have had anything, anything else,
Instead you hoarded all that's left of me.
Swallowing your doubt
Like swords to the pit of my belly,
I want to feel the fire
That you kept from me.
