as i watched in the shiftless sky i'm waiting
the clouds begin to gather for the coming storm
i saw you not for who you are unsheltered and tainted
by the bitter winds that blew you away
but i
like a lonely child who found a friend
oh i wanted to trust you
'cause you were all i had
so i thought and so it seemed
you walked away with my heart
it hung heavy on your sleeve
you drained the very part of me
that hides my deepest fears
i was lost inside myself
you dragged me out into the night
into the cold
i wondered
what you meant when you said
don't be afraid
i won't let anything harm you
i won't let anything touch you
so where do i go now that there's nowhere left to turn to
and what do i do now that there's no one left to talk to
i'm building these walls around me no one's going to break through
so with nothing left to feel i close my eyes and close my heart
i watched in the shiftless sky i'm waiting
as the clouds begin to gather for the coming storm
