Dearest Love

Lyrics/music - RDOrr (Everybody Everywhere Music, ASCAP)

The lights come up on cafe windows; a stale glow. The smell of day old bread and cigarettes, and on a table a magazine is open to a page upon which words have framed the quaint and shining smiles of a promise left unbroken, but forgotten over time.

Dearest love, don't you dare believe it. What you want, you won't ever need it. Silhouette, you gave your word and broke it.

Stand and pick off sounds in the dark where the steel meets the land. Up above the river's arms in the graveyard of the stars. Here, the warrior tore the sky and did not appologize. His love in stone and glass, and in the deepest caverns hides.

Dearest love, don't you dare believe it. What you want, they won't ever need it. Silhouette, you gave your word and broke it.

So let 'em see you when you're strong and laughing at the world. For the longest they can hold out; uncomfortable at best. For the ways that we change and we stay the same and the tedium of parts. For the teller, from the bottle, for the tyranny of hearts;

Dearest love, don't you dare believe it. What you want, you won't ever need it. There were walls long before the timid. And all of you can just keep believing, one time told is the story ended.
