if this is all there is ...
if this is all there is
then this will have to do
if all you see are the sharp edges of broken windows
then let that jagged world be yours and yours alone
if all you taste is the salt of a sea breeze
then taste it again and then again
if all the air is filled with the smoke of your smouldering anger
then breathe deeply and gasp alone in the darkness
if your heart is shattered by love lost
then let the remnants fly away like birds from a cage
if this is all there is
then this will have to do
then this will have to do
if all you see are the sharp edges of broken windows
then let that jagged world be yours and yours alone
if all you taste is the salt of a sea breeze
then taste it again and then again
if all the air is filled with the smoke of your smouldering anger
then breathe deeply and gasp alone in the darkness
if your heart is shattered by love lost
then let the remnants fly away like birds from a cage
if this is all there is
then this will have to do
