|
what I meant to say |
|
is that I didn't mean to say |
|
the things I said |
|
cornered, cut and rolled |
|
and going mouthful mad |
|
with things I never said to you |
|
|
|
all this time |
|
all these words |
|
and I'm not even close |
|
|
|
what I thought I said |
|
was that I didn't think to say |
|
the things I thought |
|
|
|
summer sight and mind |
|
I count to ten inside |
|
and lie a whitish lie again |
|
|
|
all this time |
|
all these words |
|
and still I'm going 'round |
|
a thousand yards out |
|
|
|
cut me in half to read |
|
the words running red through me |
|
cut me in half to free |
|
the tumours and memories |
|
|
|
all this time |
|
all these words |
|
what else can I say? |
|
what else can I say? |
|
all this time |
|
all these words |
|
and still I haven't said |
|
what I meant to say |
