She fought so hard to keep him
She finally lost herself
Empty and in silence
Her freedom on the shelf

Come as you are
But not as you
I want the version I created
Bow to my irrational fear
Never to be reinstated

If only we could turn back time
If only sense had space
If only we could return to love
And emerge from this dark place

I’m not asking you to be all healed
I’m not asking you to suffer
I just can’t go on at this pace
Losing the beauty I have to offer

Maybe I need to let you go
Maybe this isn’t meant to be
Maybe you’re not the everything
I had you down to be

But I hope you are
I wish you were
Life without you I cannot bare
I wish you were by my side
Until white’s our hair
