time

Time here,
all but means nothing, just shadows that move across the wall
They keep me company, but they don't ask of me
they don't say nothing at all.

And I need just a little more silence
And I need just a little more time
But you send your thieves to me
silently stalking me
Dragging me into your web
Would you give me no choice in this?
I know you can't resist, trying reopen a sore

Leave me be, I don't want to argue
I'd just get confused and I'd come all undone
If I agree, well, it's just to appease you
Cause I don't remember what we're fighting for

You see love-- a tight, thorny thread that you spin in a circle of gold
You have me to hold me
a token for all to see
captured to be yours alone

And I need just a little more silence,
and I just need a little more time
The courage to pull away
there will be hell to pay
the deeper you cut to the bone

Leave me be, I don't want to argue
I'd just get confused and I'd come all undone
If I agree, well, it's just to appease you
Cause I don't remember what we're fighting for

Time here,
all but means nothing,
just shadows that move across the wall
They keep me company,
but they don't ask of me
they don't say nothing at all.

Leave me be, I don't want to argue
I'd just get confused and I'd come all undone
If I agree, well, it's just to appease you
Cause I don't remember what we're fighting for

"Time" - Sarah McLachlan

They say it takes time to heal, time to get over things.

There is no prize for me - no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Hell, there isn't even a rainbow any more. I think I see a few colors now and then, but there's always a dark cloud to block my view. I may as well make friends with that cloud since it looks like we're in for the long haul together.

me myself
with my face pressed up against love's glass
to see the shiny toy i've been hoping for
the one i never can afford
