Answer me!

She writes-no sound, no light Every page-burns bright Isabelle, you hide behind the ink The letters twist, but you don't blink You stand, you wait, you watch, you think Are you lost or found? Who will know She moves with the pen, not with the tongue In silence, the words are sung Can you feel the pulse, the shift, the weight Isabelle-do you speak at all Isabelle-where do you fall What's left? What's gone Will you ever answer Will you ever answer You watch, you write, you hide, you keep Never loud, always deep The world spins, you hold still Ink flows, against your will. Isabelle, with every phrase You're pushing, pulling, through the haze But silence is your fortress-safe Yet there's hunger, there's a taste Words pull you in, but silence frees A battle fought on bended knees Do you need them? Do they need you Isabelle-do you speak at all Isabelle-where do you fall What's left? What's gone Will you ever answer Will you ever answer Answer Answer me Answer me, answer me now Isabelle-where do you fall What's left? What's gone Will you ever answer Will you ever answer Will you ever answer Answer Answer me Answer me now Isabelle Isabelle
