It's Not Over

Don’t say it’s all over (cause it’s not) “Sorry” won’t cover it…so don’t go on your knees and pray for my forgiveness Oh baby…don’t listen to the commotion…I’m done taking cover (it’s all for naught) I’m plummeting in slow motion…into the remorseful pit…I’m plummeting in my nightmare’s abyss I want to carry you through the night… I’m swimming in the ocean of my tears… My sodden wings lost its ability of flight… You've been swimming in your distress for years… Shut up! Don’t say it... Don’t even think of it (don’t even ponder it) Hey! Don’t say it’s all over…though we’re breaking bit by bit ‘Cause there’s more treasure to discover I want to remind you to fight the good fight… My misery pools are brewing inside of my head… I’m backing away from the light & exploring the night… You’re giving in to sleep and I’m wide awake on my bed Shut up! Don’t say it... Don’t even think of it (don’t even ponder it) Hey! Don’t say it’s all over…though we’re breaking bit by bit ‘Cause there’s more treasure to discover Please don’t tell me…oh, don’t tell me…darling! You’re giving up today… (I beg you to stay, despite your inner pain) I’m scared I might erupt – it could be quite startling! Someday, things will change for the better… (Don’t turn the wrong lane) I’m waiting for that day to arrive – perhaps it will wash away our dismay… I promise you a tranquil reality I want to stray with you tonight I still have hope that He’ll set us free I was wondering if you could stay the night Maybe the Lord could grant us Pure, incredible delight Shut up! Don’t say it... Don’t even think of it (don’t even ponder it) Hey! Don’t say it’s all over…though we've plunged into our own pit ‘Cause there’s more treasure to gather…

...David, as hard as you try you will never be able to really change anyone's nature. Acceptance can be very painful. I am truly sorry we don't sometimes have magic powers. I have wished for them a few times.
