Rainman - Blood Has Been Shed

I can’t help but remember how our last conversation ended

Too much quiet hostility

Too much was left unsaid

Diamond tears shine brightly in the sunlight

There must be resolution

The dreams tire me

The hope has taken its toll

Everything I wanted it all has become a handful of broken glass

I’m slipping in pools of failed attempts

Coming full circle

Coming full circle to end it all I would never have dreamed

That constriction would still leave me breathing

Worry lines are etched in your face if only they were for me

If only they were for us

My flame is extinguishing right before your eyes

You can ignore that?

Smile the way that wins the world

Shades of blue and swirling gray

Are leaving me helpless

There really is very little time left for peace treaties

Put your John Hancock on the dotted line and keep a promise this time
