Shallow White

The moment dies
She turns away
They always act like they're so surprised
I pull them close and hold them with my eyes
It shouldn't hurt to say
What you feel inside
Do you feel inside?

Slow words
Can never say
Or utter sound
They splash her mind and drip off her this way
And fall from view no more
Or out of sight

Though love is shallow white
A fall from grace for you
So hold me in your hands
So hold away

Hold me now
And hold me in this way

Hold me now
And lead me out of sight
Reaching out for shallow white

She's waiting now
Waiting for the end to come
No rush
Another year that's come
Another gone
Hope's passed
She's waiting now
And knows you're waiting too
