ask me how to do it
ask me how to believe
ask me how to love
ask me how to conquer
yet slip away in the middle of the night
without ever asking to do it with me
ask me how to stave off the rain
ask me how to wonder in the wilderness
ask me how to sing in the silence
ask me how to believe
but everyone forgets that when they check out
wonder if I want to do it too
ask me what it means to be alone
cause you know I know too well
tap on my shoulder while I sleep
cause the only one that does is danger
taking me on a road that is filled with skulls
cause you know I’m used to the dread
ask me what it’s like to breathe
ask me what it’s like to dream
ask me what it’s like to die alive
ask me what it’s like to know
but of course
forget if I’d do with you
