A Land Defined By The Sea

pretend that this change is not enough.
and i'll pretend that i have no more lies
(and put lies in your way)
i promise you i'll make up better lies
whenever i've got the time.

well, all i've got is time now.

i hope you don't know
that i hoped that you'd go away.
i don't know how you can pretend
that i won't hate this.

did i promise you i'd be there on time?

and i hope that you know
this morning i couldn't pretend.
i'll wait, and in time
these motionless words will be my end.
i'll wait for you, and why?
can't you hear the words i could not send?
and i hope that you know
just where it is that i stand.
because i don't.
