lyrics

when I think of you
my feet are wet
I’m running towards you in the rain and suddenly there is no pain
in my legs
or in my head
but in my heart
I can’t forget

and when you think of me
there are no words
for the songs you want to write
though you say I keep you up at night
I’m not the one
who holds your hand
when you wake up

no one will know
that I exist
though their shallow gaze may trace the crooked lines in your face
I do not live there
anymore
anymore
I am the air
that surrounds you
river of shame
you flow within me
yet you are nowhere
not around me
anymore

no one will know
but I exist
and it’s enough
