Tears


If every tear fall diminishes every pain
And cease to be a mirror of one's soul's distress
If the amount of tears shed for each heartbreak 
Has a fixed volume, proportional to the wound's depth
If every tear drop would waste away every tragic memory
And delete the heaviness each day
Then I can lie in wait and hope
And spend some waking moments drowning in tears
Then I can lie in wait and hope
That one tomorrow I would have drained it all
Then I can lie in wait and hope
That one day tears would stop to fall
