Divided Unity

Hazel

What would you say if I told you that I could

See things that could never be

If I told you what they were

Do you think you'd abandon me

Drowning in a bottle and

I reek of insecurity

Capsized in the waves

'Cause my past is an endless sea

I can feel myself drowning

I can feel my lips frowning

I can feel tears that don't

Even belong to me

I can feel myself slipping

I can feel my threads ripping

I can feel little moments

That I miss too much

I know that I shouldn't cry

Or break down over a guy

Who'll never speak to me here

In some physical place

I know damn well if I die

That well, between you and I

The benefit of the doubt

Just leaves without a trace

So Hazel, tell me

What am I doing wrong?

Is it true that I've

Been the fool all along

Is there such thing as love?

Or am I too much a dreamer

Am I trapped in petty lies

Am I too much of a scehemer?

All my tales end the same

Like the end of a game

But there's no draw, in the end

I always lose

My stories' tragedy fills

The old hymns of the hills

Too many secrets to hide

Now I'm so confused

I don't know what I want

But I won't bother tryin'

Last time I trusted my heart

It left me with a lion

Birds can fly that much is true

My wings have gone glacial

And now I'm afraid to fall

What about you, Hazel?
