|
His bag was as close to me |
|
As the memory of his father and me |
|
But he moved it away before |
|
I had the chance to look into it at all |
|
His reaction was an eye full |
|
But I still had my mouth full |
|
And I couldn't tell the truth |
|
We had everything to loose |
|
So I stood on a cigarette |
|
And decided we hadn't finished yet |
|
I should tell him before I forget |
|
I'm surprised he hasn't guessed it yet |
|
Take your pity and sympathy |
|
'Cos there is nothing wrong with me |
|
The crutch of his wrinkled hand |
|
Clutched my spine and |
|
it wrecked me fine |
|
Black fingernails dug in |
|
I was wrenching and he cracked a grin |
|
I was frail I was painfully thin |
|
I never found my safety net |
|
Take your pity and sympathy |
|
'Cos there is nothing wrong with me |
