you spread me thin across the page try to read keep it like a book and you made your mark and you set it aside thinking i could wait you were wrong it took too long and you said hands like these something about tranquility went to a place a thousand miles from here try to make it precious and hold on but it was gone soaked to my knees i thought i would drown and all alone i heard a voice filled with pain and you re reminded of this now and you think of this again and again
