Afterlife

I cut your threads,
I pulled your strings
and then I fade unclear.
Maybe I said some things
you can't unhear.
I threw away my worn out dress.
You have never said I was the best.
It's cruel.

I seek, then I'm hiding.
The war fought in my mind.
Games played till I don't cry,
till the sparks fly.
Why'd you have to leave all my ash inside?
Come into play,
it's time to blame the things I'll say.

Stay,
don't you go?
Fly away.
Your time and heart is all I have.
Dead of night,
pouring rain.
Hourglass is broken.
Don't you wanna cry, don't you wanna try me again?
Dimming Christmas lights, putting up the fight, till the end?
I'll have to pray.
Stay,
don't you go?
See the light.
I wait for you in afterlife.

What if your little lies were forgery?
I wait for you to rise like augury.
This eventide pain comes in waves,
your light might drown all my lakes.

I fall down this black hole.
Your voice is the last call.
My troubles get so old,
you're getting colder.

Don't you wanna make me your silver line?
Just touch my hand,
don't leave this bed,
don't cut this thread.

Break in my old dusty room.
Tell me, that we'll make it through.
Make me want to stand by you.
I need you to
show me I'm your dignity.
Tell me what we meant to be.
Ask me just to stay with me.
