Hush all you murderous thoughts or I’ll learn what I love through what I’ve lost Storm, storm inside my cup tell your tempest winds to ease up For I’m skating on thin ice over a surface called my life But my sense of ceremony’s strong, we can pretend that nothing’s wrong This song is a scream from the shadows where I’ve been But I pray your lips don’t utter this until after I leave If I’m a mote upon the depth of time then what is consequence to a crime? I’ve not sinned as such but silenced much for the sake of my loved one’s lives And I’ve taught my nerves to lay down and my tears to stay at bay With a sip of tea and some chivalry I can cope with all the strain This song is a secret from a place where I have been But I pray your mouth don’t shout it out until I have made my leave All the opposites interchange Love and hate rearrange Every truth I ever claimed For how long must I walk with no shoes and no coat against these winds? Will this squall see me fall and raise all I’ve buried to my lips? And there’s no limit on my love but my heart can overflow Pass through the valves on the back of blood and out to every cell This song is a plea for I so want you to see All that you could never guess there could possibly be There could possibly be There could possibly be
