Words In My Head

Slipping Through my Fingers

does she see it?
does she feel it?
does she know my thoughts too?

or is it just because I'm tired
and she doesn't have a clue?

can she see me slipping away?
can she feel a ghost in the room?
can she comprehend what all this means?

or is she unaware of my doom?

will she understand tomorrow why I couldn't look her way?
will she guess the things I never had the courage to say?
will she be confused and angry, and think the blame is not mine?

or does she know that I was slipping through her fingers all the time?

slipping through my fingers all the time

I try to catch her every minute

the feeling in it

slipping through my fingers all the time

do I even see what's in her mind?

each time I think I'm close to knowing,
she keeps on growing

slipping through my fingers all the time
