The Why to Come

What am I still breathing for
You wait for the traitor's door
He comes knocking
But I tell him to just go away

Why won't you come
Tell us why
Why won't you come
Just come, just come

Opened my defenceless door
Can't deal with the waiting anymore
He came knocking and I answered
I died defending my home
My mind were all my secrets hide
Remain safely intact as I die

Why do children still cry
Tell me why won't you come
Starvation and plague ruins life
Yet you don't come
Untamed and idle you watch
Why won't you come
Just come,

I held the cradle
Of the last womb born child
Is this moment what I was breathing for
Death came knocking at my door
I screamed as I greeted his wide grin
Secrets all lay bare I beckoned him come in
I was ready to die standing
In a pool of tears

Why won't you come
We can't suffer to wait anymore
I the whore of my secret mind
Laboring to escape day and night
Crafted a world in which to hide
A dream written not drugs or some tragic lie
Tonight you come or I die
So just come

Why won't you come
Tell us why
Why won't you come
Just come, just come
