Broken Wings

Why are you hiding
Behind those masks
Saying you still want me
When I can't even see you behind those dark covers

Who are you breathing as?
Yourself?
Or as the flower that only perfectly blooms in front of me?
That's not the 'you' that I want to be with

Be you
You with the brightest smile
You with tenderness
You with the two broken wings
And you with the broken mask

Stand before me just as you
Don't be afraid

I'm not hiding in this garden
I'm just looking after the flower that you sow
Scattered seeds
It's everywhere
But why can't I see you here

Your silhouette is the only thing that's true about you

I'd tear everything in this garden
If that's what it takes
To see you
For you to come to me as you

I'll wait for you here
Right next to this lonely flower
That you silently wanted to give me
Since long ago

I'll always be with you
If you want me to.
