Hide & Seek

"Then as part of the game,
She completely forgot where she'd hidden herself,
And she spent the rest of her time,
Trying to find the parts"






I can't stop listening to this, it's amazing. Shatteringly beautiful.

Every single word. . .

"No I wont see you later, Go build another castle out of sand"


That's the line that cuts like a knife. . . but every single word quantifies exactly how I feel, all the time.







All of the time. . .


Shadows on the pavement burn a watermark of you,
and every city siren calls your name down every avenue,
I'm falling into contemplation, broken to my knees,
but I need no resolution here though it cuts me at the seams,


I'm still the same,
You're not going to take me down again,
I'm feeling old,
that doesn't mean you can break my soul,

See my youth begin to fade through the eyes of a child,
and I've studied every lesson learned that wiped away my smile,
and I've learned that all your walls are just a cover of a book,
every word a broken promise, every page a heart you took,



I'm still the same,
You're not going to take me down again,
I'm feeling old,
that doesn't mean you can break my soul,



Buried like a splinter, rips apart like paper,
Blows away like ashes in my hand,

No I won't see you later,
Go build another castle out of sand

. . . . Like ashes in my hand

I'm not drowning in your sea,
Believing in you will not be the death of me,
Not waiting for the curtain drop,
Or waiting for the hurt to stop,
Not drowning in a teardrop,
For your love. .

Break my soul,
Break my soul,



I'm still the same,
You're not going to take me down again,
I'm feeling old,
that doesn't mean you can break my soul,
