some escape some door to open
|
this path seems the blackest but i
|
guess it's the soonest
|
but there in the clearing i
|
know you'll be wearing
|
your young aching smile and
|
waving your hand
|
can't go with my heart when i
|
can't feel what's in it i
|
thought you'd come over
|
but for some reason you didn't
|
glass on the pavement under my shoe
|
without you is all my life amounts to
|
|
a final sleep no
|
words from my cutting
|
mouth to your ear or
|
taut wicked pinches
|
from my fingers to your bitter face
|
that i can't heal
|
i know tomorrow
|
you will be
|
somewhere in london
|
living with someone
|
you've got some kind of family
|
there to turn to
|
and that's more than i could ever give you
|
|
a chance for calm
|
a hope for freedom
|
outlet from my cold solitary kingdom
|
by the forest of our spring stay
|
where you walked away
|
and left a bleeding part of me
|
empty and bothered
|
watching the water
|
quiet in the corner
|
numb and falling through
|
without you what does my life amount to?
|
