Today
Today I am going to let my heart cry for you freely
To let the tears flow down
To let our memories kill me
Today I will give into the sorrow in which I am bound
I won't try to stop the hurt
I won't try to be found
Today I will find comfort in the pain
Hold the pieces to the flame
I will miss you
I will kiss you
I will love you
All the same
Today I will live a little
Die a little
Smile a little
Cry a little
Today I will hurt and let it be OK
I won’t run away
I will stay in this cold pale state
I will sit in silence
Hold you in my sleep
So tomorrow I can let you go
And not weep
