Austen

All the stories my father told
They spoke of your golden heart
Now the air in the room is cold
As your memories fall apart

You fear the silence
So I keep the words coming
You won't remember them
Once all the clocks stop turning
We might expect it
But my heart's still filled with dread
And words I never said
Words I never said

Give me strength to see you weak
'Cause I can't bear to let you leave
I know you're tired, but please don't sleep
'Cause I can't bear to let you leave

You've been claimed by your suffering
Sinking deeper in your pain
If you made a recovery
Could you ever be the same?

You fear the silence
So I keep the words coming
You won't remember them
Once all the clocks stop running
We might expect it
But my heart's still filled with dread
And words I never said
Words I never said

Give me strength to see you weak
'Cause I can't bear to let you leave
I know you're tired, but please don't sleep
'Cause I can't bear to let you leave

I tower over your hospital bed
Like you used to with me
I tower over your hospital bed
Like you used to...

Strength to see you weak
'Cause I can't bear to let you leave
Give me strength to see you weak
'Cause I can't bear to let you leave
I know you're tired, but please don't sleep
'Cause I can't bear to let you, bear to let you leave
