Play

I will play you like words

Except the game's in your hands

And I'm bound to your rules

And to the essence of what you speak

 

I'm attached like sand on paper

Pasted like glue

a demonstrable piece of love for you

 

Take my hands 

Lace yours through me

But only for a moment

It must be short-lived, you see

It's all I know, after all

 

I know of detachment and bridges burned

Spirits broken and tides that turned

 

Because if we connect

the world will fall

It's all I've witnessed after all
