I should have turned to you and said, |
|
It's alright darling... someday you'll forget me. |
|
And your eyes would have welled up with tears, |
|
Mine would have as well. |
|
So these days a wandering mind holds sway, |
|
And hope is a knife sick with need. |
|
Will you cry out for me in your sleep? |
|
Wasting what precious little time we have left, |
|
On a dead man trying to find life. |
|
Against a bright moon, dark sky, and city lights. |
|
The color of her eyes, the taste of her flesh. |
|
I've failed again. |
|
Quietly leaving, quietly leaving again. |
