like a ton of bricks it hits
|
before she finishes her sentence
|
as the predicate predicts
|
a swift ending to her presence
|
|
i could see it coming from a mile away
|
at six hundred miles an hour
|
a surprise attack, a tora tora kamikaze
|
no looking back
|
a tactic of considerable power
|
|
it doesn't matter now what i should have done then
|
my heart was in the right place at the wrong time again
|
|
in close to half a second my composure was lost
|
and i had found my modesty
|
"everything not in the dumpster was otherwise tossed,"
|
...her voice lacking sincerity
|
|
a phone call is made at midnight
|
that won't let her fall asleep
|
the ringer's turned off
|
but she can hear the answering machine
|
|
it's you plus me divided by inadequacy times my denial
|
minus three words that were thrown around and around
|
and a why can doo mang ing tang duaplan
|
|
if you want to get away you'll have to go through me
|
or walk over my dead body (and you just may)
|
the ship is sinking, i'm the captain, there's no escape
|
if you want to get away you're gonna hafta go through
|
meeeehey!
