Songtext von More Than This

Within the context of a pseudo-masquerade Masked by the electric hum of melodies The mask's removal feels so far away And so the truest form Indeed the naked form proclaims: The wasted nights spent counting lines like fingerprints along the ceiling The silent reveries that never claimed to see the light of day The proof of something real Something devoid of self Could shatter cityscapes Could stop a beating heart Yet could never produce One single awkward word A single broken thought A whispered declaration You never promised me a world without rain And never put out the sun Yet in the AM I've disowned you To see the smile that would burn itself into my heart To see the single teardrop fall the way I'd always dreamt it would To have every thought for just one second melt into words For just one breath And if life goes on the way it has These two meek decades past At least the lines upon my ceiling May forget my name If nothing else is born From this falling star At least I will know That I am capable of something Deeper than myself Deeper than our skin Nothing in this world has ever meant so much To me Please
