You Can Fight The Sleep But Not The Dream

I've been having dreams about you again
Dreams where I say all the right things and you forgive me
Dreams where you say you understand and that you miss me
If I thought the words 'I'm sorry' would mean anything to you
I'd type them out a million times
I'd send a letter everyday
Scrawl it in the sand
Carve it into every tree
If I thought my lips could say the words you needed to hear
I'd talk for hours trying to find them
If I thought my tears could show you how I really feel
I would no longer try and hide them
I've said what I could
And I've tried all I know
But the little voice that says 'it's time to let him go' is still in my head
it's getting louder now and much more persistent
And I'm getting much too weak to resist it
So I'll give up for now
Press delete a thousand times
Save my postage
I'll stay away from the beach
And out of the woods
My lips will stay closed
And my eyes will be dry

Maybe in my silence you can finally find whatever it is you needed to hear
