to let go

// thanks to Dally for this picture // 

my weary bones beneath my fragile skin

singing out to your broken heart

oh -- it hurts so much

tears threaten to spill out of my eyes, 

but i hold them back because i know that they'll never stop

once they leave

a deep breath in as i release you

gingerly letting your soft soul out of my reach

but oh -- it hurts so much

i don't ever want to let you go

and i hope you never want to let me go

but we must

i'll hold you up until my last bone breaks

until the last song escapes my lips

oh, it does hurt so much

but we'll make it
