Just this time I ask
please do it slowly
Don't leave this cardboard
here in my soul
Remember I'm the meek and the lowly
Don't leave it crumbling
here in my soul
Oh
Listen
It's gone
Just this time I ask
please speak it softly
Don't wake the ghosts
here in my soul
For now I hear the coming of silence
As stark and white
As my fragile soul
Oh
Listen
It's gone
Just for now I ask
drop it forever
Don't leave it wandering
here in my soul
Remember I'm the meek and the lowly
Don't leave this cardboard
here in my soul
