lyrics

you were a secret kept
far from my heart

i know i should have wept
but no tears found their way out

you were an avalanche
a sharp decent with fast words, deliverance

(i will not be ashamed, i will move perfectly now)

and i, the minuet
kept time by sorrow spent

spoke soft, stood down

(step away, step away, i will hold in my place)

and i have been losing sleep
so i can't be trusted to know

every time you cry out
you say, "not enough, dear"

would i change pace-
move air through empty lungs?

oh, compose yourself
and know that all you'll be
is a secret left upon my lips for now
