I could see what lay hidden and had never seen light reaching into your depths I tried to make it right making up for the things you had missed on your way but it still lays unearthed won't see the light of day you say you weren't ready but our time might come so we played with fire 'til one of us succumbed loving you was hard and I took the risk giving not your heart but only your kiss a tear will not fall for those yesterday's for what was not nourished but instead, put away the shadow stretches long on the times spent with you silence falls heavy on all you subdued like a mask it does cover all but our passion in despair comes the heartbreak that is always in fashion you hide the truth asking nothing of me the shroud does not slip when you set me free
