Standing in between
What was once you and me
These trees they whisper
Or am I deceived?
Sing sweet dumb girl
It’s time for you to leave
We cannot shield you
From winter and decay

Let go - don’t lay low
Fill your lungs and breath until your body burns
Run for your life
To free the tears inside you cleverly locked down
Crash through all you convey
Forget all you’ve been taught
No language left to say

Now you only bring me your empty hands
And they crumble into to dust when they’re held

I have a pure, purer heart than thine
No more you vex me
Try to drain me dry
I am so tired, tired by the fight
To find the reasons for words you throw like knives
Let go – don’t lay low

Run for your life
To free the tears inside you cleverly locked down
Now you only bring me your empty hands
And they crumble into to dust when they’re held
Crash through all you convey
Forget all you’ve been taught
No language left to say
Now you only bring me your empty hands
And they crumble into to dust when they’re held

And I’m done trying to be the one
Who says I love you dear
A poison with no sting 
A paper thin meaning
And I run ‘til I can feel nothing
What’s under my skin
I’m fading I’m healing
And the rest can fall away

Now you only bring me your empty hands
And they crumble into to dust when they’re held
Let go, don’t lay low
Fill your lungs and breath until your body burns
Now you only bring me your empty hands
And they crumble into to dust when they’re held
