Remnants of Our Love

Rooting you out
Out of marrow
Out of blood

You were my keeper
Double edged our dreams and tossed

Dear love
Friendship left to drift
Withdrawing from you
Withdrawing from me

Its clear to see
the game we had played

Where dream meets the real
Where babies are born
Though I'm a fool
To play by your rules

I'm sick with love
Death will come
The sun will ignite
Grass will grow

We spoke in your midnight dreams
I'm caught between your shadows
The depth of your grace

When drive out in all directions
I provided the cushion and ear
you discarded the thought

I feel your voice
Grazing between breaths
I've needed your love 
To right what was wrong

Its hard to press on without you
At the peak of your life
I'm sorry to let you drop

I cannot fill the facade
If you wont come to follow me
I must leave it behind
The remnants of our love
