Subtle

For Marshall

In my shoes, just to see
What it's like, to be me
I'll be you, let's trade shoes
Just to see what it'd be like
To feel your pain, you feel mine
Go inside each others minds
Just to see what we'd find
Look at stuff through each others eyes

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
Well that's alright because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
Well that's alright because
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I can't tell you what it really is
I can only tell you what it feels like
And right now there's a steel knife in my windpipe
I can't breathe but I still fight all I can fight
As long as the wrong feels right it's like I'm in flight

We're all we got in this world
When it spins
When it swirls
When it whirls
When it twirls
Two little beautiful girls
Lookin' puzzled, in a daze
I know it's confusing you
Daddy's always on the move
Mama's always on the news
I try to keep you sheltered from it
But somehow it seems, the harder that I try to do that
The more it backfires on me

Thank you, Adam

And I'll forget the world that I
Knew
But I swear I won't forget
You
Oh, if my voice could
Reach
Back through the
Past
I'd whisper in your
Ear
Oh darling, I wish you were
Here

Reborn

A voice unheard
For months
Awakens beneath
The rains
Of change

Reborn
I am
Anew
Afresh

A voice
So listen
And listen well
