How strange it is to dream of you while I'm wide awake.

Tried to numb the pain you instilled in me,
          I could never be what you wanted me to be.

Hope is the thing with feathers That perches in the soul, And sings the tune without the words, And never stops at all.

All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid
          Nymph then a virgin, nurse then a servant
          Just an appendage, live to attend him
          So that he never lifts a finger
          24∕7, baby machine
          So he can live out his picket fence dreams

The capillaries in my eyes are bursting
          If our love died, would that be the worst thing?
          For somebody I thought was my saviour
          You sure make me do a whole lot of labourn

Sep 8?? GIRL, WHERE R MORE LYRICS??? 

Tried to numb the pain with the bite of steel,
          But only created new scars that never truly healed.
          Turned my body into a broken masterpiece,
          All because I needed temporary release.

And all along I believed I would find you
          Time has brought your heart to me
          I have loved you for a thousand years
          I'll love you for a thousand more

With a whisper, we will tame the vicious seas
          Like a feather, bringing kingdoms to their knees

Though we're tethered to the story we must tell
          When I saw you, well I knew we'd tell it well
