A flicker,nA whispernA sparknBefore it becomes the flame.nnWrite your name next to minenOn this hollowed out oak treenDraw a heart to enclosenLove as it should be.nnGravity in the absence of warmthnIt helps keep me to the groundnBut if i can't touch your fingertips to minenHow will i know you even care?nnWould you just stay tonightnTo make me feel like I don't have to grieve?nAre you the arc that starts the firenOr are you the flood who sucks it dry?nnTell me babynIt's not worth our timenIf you don't say a wordnLove i'm gonna leave you.nnA flickernA whispernA catatonic secondnWhile my heart collapses.nnEngrave the lie with menInto the flesh of a dead treenDraw a splintered heartnTo show your thorned love.nnIf you keep this up and i stay tied downnWhat good does it do us to sit in silencenAre you the arc that starts the ragenTell me if you're just going to use mennWould you just lay here beside menIf you knew that your heart wasn't in thisnBecause I can't sleep for a minutennAnd if in dreams onlynYou'd love menIt's where I'd want to stay...nnTell me babynIt's not worth our timenIf you don't say a wordnLove I'm gonna leave you.nnTell me babynIt's not worth our timenIf you don't say a wordnLove I'm gonna leave you.nnLove I'm gonna leave you.nLove I'm gonna leave you.
