3.

i never knew what the glimmer in your eyes was...
but i carry it 'round with me all the same.
maybe you'll realise it's missing and track me down.
or maybe you've always known, and i'm stuck with it forever.

2.

you looked so sad when you told me you loved me.
yet you'd smile widely and confess that you felt so alone.
i wonder if it's a burden being so tragically beautiful.
maybe i'm neurotic, but i won't sleep until i know you're okay.

1.

tangled up in sheets you told me to wait for the day we meet again.
told me you'd smile, and we'd know that it's all okay.
"for now we'll lay here", you whispered, head resting on my collarbone.
"and maybe, just maybe you'll teach me how to get through the night."
the metaphorical hole you're digging yourself into is like a dream.
all you have to do is wake up, baby.
