Micropause

Your eyes
Dismantle my heart
Until I’m
Left standing in a while room

Your touch
Shakes my foundations
Until I’m
Left crumbling in my silence

Could you hear me think?
Have you watched my dreams?
Did you catch a glimpse
In the micropause
That we shared a thought?

You know
Nothing of this struggle
As I
Try to forget all of you

[Chorus]

Looking for the little things
To let me know
To give me hope
Knowing in my heart of hearts
To let you go
And give you up

Could you hear me think?
Have you watched my dreams?
Did you catch a glimpse
As our fingers brushed
In the micropause
Don’t make me believe
Messages received
You can’t reach this pain
For a micropause
For a micropause

You can’t reach this pain
