my dear i hear your voice in mine

i've been alone here

i've been alone here

i've been afraid my dear 

i've been at home here

i've been at home here

you better wait for years, you better wait for years 

i breathe your name into the air,

i etched your name into me

i felt my anger swelling

i swam it to its sea

i held your name inside my heart but it got buried in my fear 

it tore the wiring of my brain, i did my best to keep it clear

so dear no matter how we part,

i hold you sweetly in my head. 

and if i do not miss a part of you, a part of me is dead. 

if i can't love you as a lover, i will love you as a friend.

i will lay a bed before you, keep you safe until the end.
