the one who survives by making the lives
of others worthwhile
she’s coming apart
right before my eyes
the one who depends on the services
she renders to those who come knocking
she’s seeing too clearly what she can’t be
what understanding defies
she says I need not to need
or else a love with intuition
someone who reaches out to my weakness
and won’t let go
I need not to need
I’ve always been the tower
but now I feel like I’m the flower
trying to bloom in snow
she turns out the light
anticipating night falling
tenderly around her
and watches the dusk
the words won’t come
she carries the act so convincingly the fact is
sometimes she believes it
that she can be happy the way things are
be happy with the things she’s done
she says I need not to need
or else a love with intuition
someone who reaches out to my weakness
and won’t let go
I need not to need
I’ve always been the tower
but now I feel like I’m the flower
trying to bloom in snow
reach out
but hold back
where is safety
reach out
and hold back
where is the one who can change me
where is the one
the one
reach out
but hold back
where is safety
reach out
and hold back
where is the one who can save me
where is the one
the one
she says I need not to need
or else a love with intuition
someone who reaches out to my weakness
and won’t let go
I need not to need
I’ve always been the tower
but now I feel like I’m the flower
trying to bloom in snow
