many nights we passed as friends hoping somehow you could sense these words i ve kept inside just too much to hide this aching dream how could it be you share the same secret as me could this note i set afloat find you lost at sea tell me those are tears of joy and not of sorrow for what s been destroyed a fragile frame with hallow bones that some poor fool thought he could make his own i ve said too much and now my cover s blown together in this crystal tower we filled with countless idle hours will my heart be the stone that brings it crashing down every glance i ve analyzed every night i recognize how front of me for what might never be tell me those are tears of joy and not of sorrow for what s been destroyed a fragile frame with hallow bones that some poor fool thought he could make his own i ve said too much and now my cover s blown before a word has crossed your lips my heart sinks into the abyss this shadow of a doubt is swallowed up by an eclipse this moment hangs like glacial ice afraid to meet those tell tale eyes break the final seal just what will they reveal tell me those are tears of joy and not of sorrow for what s been destroyed a fragile frame with hallow bones that some poor fool thought he could make his own i ve said too much and now my cover s blown i ve played my hand with words i can t disown no matter how it ends i got to know
