You wake me up, though my eyes remain shut
I am blind
Wrapped by white sheets, while the one next to me
reads my mind
As my eyelids start to shudder, to the words you seem
to mutter, under your breath 
Counting the days we have left
For once to look for the parts, that we loved not the flaws 
The first glimpse of the earth, that was made just for us
I'm sure

Creases and folds, in the words you once told, it can wait
Silence reigned, as the last straws arose it's too late
As my tongue tried to speak, the words too far to reach
Holding my breath, counting the days we have left
For once to look for the soft, not the rough and unloved 
Rub the dirt out my eyes, so I can see your blue skies, again

[2x] 
While dreams may hold,
White lies unfold

You wake me up, though my eyes remain shut 
I am blind
Wrapped by white sheets, while the one next to me 
reads my mind
