Holy Tears - Tara MacLean

Wrapped inside a twisted world

I can’t decide what is even real anymore

As though I ever knew

Tangled in these silhouettes

Floating face down in a river of regrets

And thoughts of you

Holy tears they linger on

Holding you my light forever gone

You believed she’d never leave

Rosy cheeked and oh so young

And full of flame

Here in this bed of emptiness

Button by button I come undone

And only twenty-one

Holy tears they linger on

Holding you my life forever gone

Gone like the broken words at your feet

You’re gone in the venom lips that kiss me sweetly

Gone like a frightened bird into the sky

Won’t you take everything I ever had

And leave me to die as I cry

Holy tears they linger on

Holding you my love forever gone
