For You

Folder: 
Loving

I trapped the wind in a tiny bottle

I took it on my knees

I lived my life through your eyes

I swallowed your disease

And the birds are crying to me

Forever hating these

Hands that have done murder

Stealing away the breeze

I did it all for you

I did it all for you



My hatred of you hides inside you

I love you more than life and death

While father time watches me smiling

As I steal away the earth's breath

I did it all for you

I did it all for you



But my heart doesn't know any better

Than to beat beneath the sea

And you never even noticed

When I brought the wind to me

I didn't mean to kill her this way

I meant to set her free

But should have isn't would have

My last breath I give to thee

I did it all for you

I did it all for you



My hatred of you hides inside you

I love you more than life and death

While the stars just watch me smiling

As I steal away the earth's breath

I did it all for you

I did it all for you

For you

For you
