Nineveh Lyrics

Nineveh lyrics

it's so hard for me to tell you how i feel.

and i can never say exactly
what i mean.

you are my nineveh and i've been jonah from the start.

and i can't let you make the same mistakes i've made.

if for a moment
i could overcome my fear

i wouldn't have to hide behind this fiction
wall.

sometimes i wonder how i call myself your friend.

a failure
to myself.

a failure to him.

what if i told you.

would you
reach for him after all.

would you fall down to your knees.

would
you walk away from it all.

would you fall down at his feet.

and i
watch you live in months between the sun.

i can't help but feel that i
wanted more than this.

and still i smile inside and know it's not the
end.

because the light of hope is brighter than this wall of silence
