conquer your fear you whisper in my ear, I'm so afraid At this height I can see the world, It's all so beautiful and frightening, I can feel your kiss it breathes life into me but only for a moment and then I remember what dying feels like, I've climbed the highest point of love once before and I could see forever at that height, I remember walking along the edge of my life and suddenly falling my memories whisking by as I free fall there was no sound no scream, nothing but quiet nothing but me broken, scattered, chipped pieces of me blowing in the wind I'm a ghost I'm a shell of a woman you thought you felt, feeling love nor hate feeling joy nor pain, just fear I trusted someone else once I can't let you take me up there, I remember falling, I remember dying, I remember broken pieces, you reach out to touch me and your hands pass thru me
