Little
cracks
above the bed,
the fault lines turn to spider webs
Midnight haze to one a .m.
as fabric frays about the hem
And even dams lose their grit,
rivers flood and valleys shed
But in the end it's plain to see
that's how the land was meant to be
I ain't gonna fight
And I ain't gonna try
But I ain't gonna let you see
me cry
It's just a drink until you're drunk
It's just a leak until the ship is sunk
A little blood, a little wine
A little stain will fade in time
And every cloud's a touch of black
A flash of light, then a thunderclap
Dust to dust, ash to ash
The forest burns, but it grows back
So I ain't gonna fight
And I ain't gonna try
But I ain't gonna let you see me cry
No, not tonight
No, not tonight
No, not tonight
No, not tonight
Days can slip through
your hands,
or grip your neck like they'll never end
The night will whisper in your ear,
and tell you things
you don't want to hear
Like hearts can close and open wide,
rise and fall just like the tide
No matter when or where it starts
Continents, oh, they drift apart
So I ain't gonna fight
And I ain't gonna try
But I ain't gonna let you see me cry
I ain't gonna let you see me cry
I ain't gonna let you see me cry
No, not tonight
You
