Understanding

Prior to how words come out and sound like.

Voice 1:

Held in one hand

your palm.

Its warmth that tangles mine like vine.

Knots in my strings

like heart beats

on a line...

Fingers pointed in the air

signaling the final flare

as grace comes to us as mercy.

Why do you hold on...

to dreams that don't come true;

to people

you hold no bonds to;

to memories

you don't want.

You dream like me

an endless nightmare.

You sang to me

joys of the future.

You cry

to me

everyone that's stepped on you

thinking it was your wrong.

Why do you keep on going.

Just stay by my side

and you won't be lonely.

Climb the same web

as me

to home you need to be.

I don't want to see

those gems

you wasted on them.

Be in my arms

and only mine.

Voice 2:

Sorry

sorry

I can't stay

not here when I'm needed there.

People are crying

and nobody is going to comfort them...

so why not me be the one.

I loved you

like anyone else.

Sorry

sorry

I can't stay.

Please excuse me.

I know I'm a fool,

but more than anything

I rather believe.

Voice 1:

Why Oh Why?!

Voice 1 & 2:

Dearest to me,

don't forget me.

Hold on

even when we are miles away.

Voice 1:

I'll be the shoulder for you

to cry on,

so baby come home soon.

Voice 2:

Sorry Oh Sorry,

for not being able to grant you this wish.

Sorry and good bye.

Voice 1:

In my other hand,

I hold on to my chest...

as it hurts

and my tears rolls down.

Farewell dear,

...

How I hope to be with you soon.

Author's Note

I would like to compose a piano piece to accompany this, so I'll update it later.
