If I captured you heart child,
would you stay with me a while?
These lies aren't as empty
as they first might appear to be.
I'll open myself now
and try not to let ya down.
There's no fool like an old one
and I'll own all that I have done.
I may be broken
by words left unspoken.
But what would it say then
if I were to say them?
The page may be empty
and I can't defend me.
So I speak to the silence
and it offers me guidance.
If you captured my heart child,
how could I reconcile
the danger that I posses
by longing for your caress?
There’s no mystery left in me;
just an old man for you to see.
But maybe you’re softer
than the hell these dreams offer.
I may be broken
by words left unspoken.
But what would it say then
if I were to say them?
The page may be empty
and I can't defend me.
So I speak to the silence
and it offers me guidance.
Hell, I may be broken
if these words stay unspoken.
But the last thing I wanna do
is to ever put this weight on you.
There may be no forgiving
and I can't defend me.
So I wait for the silence,
but it offers no guidance.
And I can't defend me.
No I can't defend me.
I can't defend me.
No I can't defend me.
