Dviousmindz - All Of Me lyrics

[Verse 1] I think I need another minute to breathe Watching the leaves twisting in the shift of the breeze And I freeze! The images bleed, the sounds fade, the unease Your spirit is free, the clouds gray, as your pain ceases; My brain reaches for answers but cancels under the same weakness Breaching the world we knew, falling to fragments Tried to hold on 'till dawn, calling you back in But you left in a casket full of rose petals So distressed, but basking your soul's level Revel in the light because life's a sojourn But losing you is a slow burn. The globe turns Even after you've left, we try to keep collected But the memories come back when I least expect it! But since you've left, the family's reconnected So I try to keep perspective, but can't let go Holding on to these pictures, they're fading fast But our bond's made to last as the ages pa** [Hook – Wisdom Child] I'm left here, stuck with all these tainted dreams Can't you see you took all of me with you [Verse 2] As an infant, born oblivious in my innocence To the storm spinning since before I was living it Insidious faces, I write as I know it! I was given the surface, I tried to go below it And though her eyes show it, her voice will never tell When she fell and lost grip, slipped into a cell With walls closing in, she holds to keep steady But a small opening explodes to breached levees Let the rain fall, no shelter A young mother of two subdued by her elders Told to do whatever was asked of her Feeling trapped under the mask to keep the past covered Saw her son rise, but it couldn't prepare For all the pain and each prayer she put in the air Like Hail Marys No time left, hoping the saints will receive her And open the gates, she's growing faint/ Tried to bring her own closure From an over dosage of her medication, show's over Or so it seemed. Maybe I dreamt it But I can still picture the medics trying to prevent it Strengthened her faith and how she found God But it's etched in her face, somehow it sounds odd To tell this story, knowing that a part of me Was nearly lost forever, it would have taken all of me! [Hook]
