Payments to Compassion

 

He whispers something in her ear 

That she already knew 

When he was living in the stars 

But never higher than the moon 

Its hard to see it when she smiles 

She’s brimmed by her failed attempts 

Bound to get a glance 

Pretends to have a chance 

 

Can she promise not to falter 

She promised not to fade away 

She’s making payments to compassion 

With fear of having no one left to pay 

And he hates to see her suffer 

But he fades with every passing day 

He hates to see her suffer 

But he fades with every passing day
