Every little thing
is not yet ruined.
Spread your broken wings,
I'm still next to you and
I need you now
more than ever.
I don't know how,
we will stay together.
With distance growing larger
and time getting shorter.
My heart has grown farther.
From reason to disorder.

Every little thing
Every small
Slight imperfection
Every little sound
Every whisper
Sounding like a shout
Every little feeling
Engulfs me
I'm surrounded
By my doubt
Every little reminder
Breaks one of the remaining shards
Every little heart
Was astonished
At your disregard
Every little sweetheart
Who called you by name
Every little lie
Told a story
That kept us tame
Every little detail
Of my soft ivory skin
Every little cry for help
And not knowing where I've been
Every little smell
I remember by heart
Every little way I moved
Appeared like a tattered work of art
Every little word
That came out of your mouth
Every little signal
And I wanted to shout
Every little agreement
Was all in your head
Every little move you made
Made me wish I was dead
Every little broken girl
Who you hurt in your bed
Every little shattered world
Filled with voices
In their head
