Lost Notes

You let me lose those notes,
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.
