This Time Imperfect
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I can not leave here, I can not stay
Forever haunted more than afraid
Asphyxiate on words I would say
I'm drawn to a blackned sky as I turn blue.
There are no flowers, no, not this time
There will be no angels gracing the lines
Just these stark words I find
I'd show a smile but I'm too weak
I'd share with you could I only speak
Just how much this hurts me
I can not stay here I can not leave
Just like all I loved I'm make believe
Imagined heart I disappear
Seems no one will appear here and make me real
There are no flowers, no, not this time
There will be no angels gracing the lines
Just these stark words I find
I'd show a smile but I'm too weak
I'd share with you could I only speak
Just how much this hurts me
I'd tell you how it haunts me.
I'd tell you how it haunts me.
(Cuts through my day and sinks into my dreams)
I'd tell you how it haunts me.
(Cuts through my day and sinks into my dreams)
You don't care that it haunts me
Oh, There are no flowers, no, not this time
There will be no angels gracing the lines
Just these stark words I find
I'd show a smile but I'm too weak
I'd share with you could I only speak
Just how much this hurts me
Just how much this hurts me, Just how much you....
