|
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? |
