And as we shimmer into sleep
Your eyes, which were clear in the night
The petals that were blooming
For a message to slip
The petals that were blooming
But between the dying rails of peace
Relaxing, we glide
For my mind to bear
It was too beautiful
Are just paper in your hand
The petals that were blooming
It's all too beautiful
The glass
The petals that were blooming
But seeing the flower
A tear forms just behind
Are opaque as you stand
You trip
In viscous pools of joy
That was there yesterday
These visions shimmer and fade out of
The world's too lonely
Are just paper in your hand
Are just paper in your hand
Something's unshared
For it to last
The soft peace of your shades
