Scream.

Go on and scream for me again.

Bleed.

Go on and bleed for me.

I don't care anymore.

But maybe I'll pretend.

Hurt me.

Go on and hurt me again.

Desert me.

But I will no longer defend.

I will no longer defend for you.

Or open up, or play pretend for you.

Love.

Go on and try to love me once more.

Or walk out on me again. Baby, there's the door.

Maybe smile.

Just smile for me again.

Now that it's all over, it may help my heart to mend.

But don't.

Don't you say I didn't try.

Because if you say it, you'll know that it's a lie.

I'm here. Or at least I once was.

But now I fear.

I fear that it's over.

Now I'm writing to you, baby just because.

Because if I didn't tell you how I feel.

You might just forget that our love was once real.

So bleed for me.

Just bleed all over the floor.

It might give my life some color, once you walk right out the door.

Just look me in the eyes.

Just tell me what you feel.

And you might be surprised, how much you love me still.

How do I turn off my heart?

Can anybody tell me?

Because I don't want those lonely feelings to start.

They always overwhelm me.

I tried to give you everything you needed.

I tried to get you to love me back.

Baby I begged and pleaded.

But if you wanted to leave me feeling out of whack, then I guess you succeeded.

So now I'm asking.

How do I turn off my mind?

How do I turn off my feelings?

Maybe just a hint or sign.

Or a new beginning.

But everytime I try to start something new, it all burns down in flames.

So what am I supposed to do?

I just can't turn off my brain.

If it's all the same to you,

I think I'm going insane.

So please can someone tell me its alright?

I just need a little comfort to sleep tonight.

Can someone whisper it will be ok?

Then maybe I can make it through another day.

Maybe someone can hold me, for just a little while.

Maybe it would help me to remember how to smile.

I just need someone to tell me.

That it's not too late for love.

This heartbreak's getting overwhelming.

I see you there, in the mists of our dreams.

I see you stare. You open up your mouth to scream.

You open your mouth, but no sound comes out.

But baby I'm here, so you don't have to shout.

You said you wanted someone who'd always see you.

Here I am.

You said you always wanted someone to hear and believe you.

Here I am.

You said you wanted someone to join in on your journeys.

Here I am.

You said you wanted someone to share in your love and learning.

Here I am, I'll say it again,

Here I am.

Baby look into my eyes.

Look into my very soul.

Tell me, is it filled with truth or lies?

Do you think I'd ever leave you cold?

I shout out through the mists again.

Do you hear me?

Do you hear the message I tried to send?

Baby this is our beginning, not our end.

I'm going to say it one more time to you.

Baby, here I am.
