They toppled to the ground,
Fallen drumsticks, beating down,
But without a sound.
A twisted throat, a missing tune,
Where once was song went mute,
Scrambling in the darkness,
You let me fall.
I let them go.
Please come back to me
Be the breath in my lungs
Revive the deep
Longing in my soul
Return what I need.
Tears come to my eyes,
Frozen on my cheeks, they can't fall.
Notes slipping through
Sound only echoes.
I lost the music,
Rip me apart from inside out
A hollow emptiness of what was
Broken, but not your concern.
Please come back to me
Be the breath in my lungs
Revive the deep
Longing in my soul
Return what I need.
Return.
I let them go.
Come back to me now.
Fill my lips with the words
The notes in my soul
A song in my throat
Meaning to measure.
I let them go.
Please come back to me
Be the breath in my lungs
Revive the deep
Longing in my soul
Return what I need.
Please
Please.
I won't let them go.
