Cold Bed
|
|
The cold tonight seems more anxious to talk
|
|
than he has seemed in nights before
|
|
skinless face and yellow heart, he
|
|
hesitates and I wait
|
|
All my stories are about the same things
|
|
I find so many beds for them
|
|
I find this package of tiny lamps
|
|
and it makes a firey ring
|
|
Right now is the reason I carry this jewel
|
|
everywhere round my neck
|
|
I keep it close but still outside
|
|
this is my explanation
|
|
All my stories are about the same things
|
|
I find so many beds for them
|
|
I find this package of tiny lamps
|
|
and it makes a firey ring
|
|
A box of love and sex and reflection
|
|
its got my face and hands
|
|
the lonely is yellow and old
|
|
watch the cold around my bed
|
|
All my stories are about the same things
|
|
I find so many beds for them
|
|
I find this package of tiny lamps
|
|
and it makes a firey ring
|
|
