about

Acoustic version of "May", previously released as a bonus track on "Ask You" single on May 26th, 2009.

lyrics

its growing now and far from old you're shining star i see

panic breaks the weathered shell your silent misery

left your fear and lost your own
never knew just where to go
couldn't see his loving stare
thought you lost what was always there
took a hand to feel alive
knew that that could have been the night

fell to stars that hardly strayed
watching down on the night in may, that night in may

like the buds on a newborn tree your tale is hardly told

freedom rings on a bell of glass your breath is far from cold

seeing light from the very first time
falling leaves have been so high
couldn't spare to grow one more
they had to pull what they were holding on for
circles cut and a space is left
to fill it in or leave there to rest
should have stayed to the morning call
eventually everything must fall

its may and you had to go away
its may but not today

your fire ceased when everyone spilled their eyes
and you watched the ashes covered by those broken lies

you felt the hand the hand was pulling down
and you fought for your life and ended with a crown

and its may you had to away
its may

why'd you have to go away
its may

i know you tried to stay
