With a trembling hand I reach and speak your name
With a whisper so soft the word resounds
Your beautiful nameĀ
But will this whisper be enough
If I hum it to myself
Through the window, tired eyes will come to pass
Still I hum it to myself, alone.
Is it enough to get by, enough to survive in here?
Bottle it all up, keep my mouth shut in here?
Cause its so hard to love and its so hard to trust how you would
God I’m so terrified of you leading me to that door
Yet here I am, I see that door
In whispering your name once more
I wasn’t ready for this
I didn’t come running, I wasn’t halfway
Hands stretched out wide, “Here I am, send me!”
But that wasn’t me, I was the coward
All I swore not to be
But is it enough to get by, enough to survive in here?
To bottle it up, keep my mouth shut in here?
