Unglued

the wind keeps blowing
merciless,
I couldn't ask for less
this heart keeps going
as I rake the sky
these questions of why

why,
does this heart ache so much
to feel your touch
it's all just a memory
and
why
can't I feel you near
when will you hear
the screams that echo
your name

 all I wanted was
something normal
something that I could
hold onto
and as I fall
there's nothing to
hold onto
a faded dream
of what I thought
would be you
it's all come
unglued

so now,
this dance that I've longed for
across enemy lines
it's a distant shore
you won't let me
creep on in
as if my existence bears memory
to your sin
but, here's the deep
dark clue
nobody wins
when you come unglued ...

so,
all I wanted was
something normal
something that I could
hold onto
and as I fall
there's nothing to
hold onto
a faded dream
of what I thought
would be you
it's all come
unglued

oh, I always dreamed
someday
someday
there might be a way
to mend these
broken dreams
mend
these broken things
but now all this dust
comes crashing down
it's all real now
the only strength
I have
is the One who
dances with me
in my dreams
in my dreams
dark though it seems
He watches me
it's more than you
can ever be ... 

and
all I wanted was
something normal
something that I could
hold onto
and as I fall
there's nothing to
hold onto
a faded dream
of what I thought
would be you
it's all come
unglued
