not sure how to name this

you are afraid of the cliff

I am afraid of the fall

you are afraid of the silence

i am afraid of the noise of


you are afraid of death

I am afraid of missing you

you are afraid of leaving

I am afraid of not missing you


come look at the moon through the window

see it smiles with a borrowed glory

the end is not beginning to learn

how to live with a broken hand


you’re broken at the gates

and offered all you’ve ever had

on broken plates

chipped and all you’ve been sad


come look at the moon through the window

see it smiles with a borrowed glory

the end is not beginning to learn

how to live with a broken hand


see the little girl play, she sings so sweetly

watch her feet play the sand and her eyes play the melody


come look at the moon through the window

see it smiles with a borrowed glory

the end is not beginning to learn

how to live with a broken hand
