The Garland Pool - Tell Them

Pause for a moment
Long enough to feel the gravity
Of a song cut short
Shorter than a song should ever be
Oh-oo-oh-oh
My soul bleeds
Deep in the hour
Of greatest need
As I drown in tears
You speak to me
Don't remain in this dark place
Reaching for me

Tell them I'm not
Hurting anymore
Forgotten the pain that drove me
Through the white door
I love everybody
You won't believe it if
I tell you what's in store
Just know you must love one another
Carry on with love
Be OK, don't go on hurting anymore

My dearest friend
Something in me won't allow me to simply answer that
Without adorning it in the finest linens
Heartfelt poetic dance
Can you see
I'm compelled to push against
The pain, the sorrow, the sadness and fear
Using everything in me
And so to you I say
She is finally up again
Like in a dream
Only now she wears a gown
Flowing white, that no cloud
That no fall of fresh snow can hold a candle to
Freely moving, dancing

Tell them I'm not
Hurting anymore
Forgotten the pain that drove me
Through the white door
I love everybody
You won't believe it if
I tell you what's in store
Just know you must love one another
Carry on with love
Be OK, don't go on hurting anymore

I don't know how else to tell you
The awful news
Without using the kind of words
I want to keep as far from her sweet name
As possible
