Won’t you teach me to cry on cue?
Like all those singers do
Feel the scrutiny of the sound
As a lire to be crowned
Wont the just define my means
When nothings as it seems
When the child raises hands against his fathers face
When the lover raises question of loves grace
Will you teach me to dance?
Like those children do
With no fear in there eye, of how there hearts will one day die.
When they find that birthdays are a step closer to the end
How do you speak when your heart is just too weak?
When your days are just too bleak
When each hour is a weak, in your minds eye
Won’t the clock halt a breath, and stop a thousand deaths
With its hands it wipes away my hopes,
For a phone call from a god, for a day were I can breath, for a solitary sanity I’ve been hoping to achieve
