" I close my eyes but I can't rest. My body is tired, my mind is wandering. From the past to the east to the west. Trying to take up the blame, you've already taken from me. Can anyone tell me how we learn to live with ourselves?"

I'll send postcards to your memory
and sing to shadows in the night
shaking nervously in cold shivers
without you nothing is right
away from me sleep among the stars
and i'll try to keep from ripping bandages
off the broken hearts

I really loved this. I love the imagery of sending postcards to a memory, it's a bittersweet feeling. Beautiful job!
