and with that she threw the book into the ocean
and floated away, never to be spoken of again
down that spiral stair case
when you once pushed her in love
you were young then
locked in the bathroom breathing heavily
into the face of words and letters meanings unknown
and they took you to therapy
scared to listen to you
always to afraid to show the love
it's since winter
endless as i wonder thro the giant's secret garden
were you once kissed me
but i was young then
like we all once were
ribbons in my hair and the taste of her sweet on your brow
i was strong then, knowing you truth from your lies
it's the first time, replicants and chosen memories
break down on the stairs broken legs underneath all that hate
it was all so hard, and you prayed we wouldn't turn our hate on each other
we sing in our different broken octaves
caress your hair and you pretend not to notice
wondering what it would feel like to reach out and touch his hand
watch everyone drive by, looking over your useless belongings
could be back, on that lonely day walking thro the crap apple blossoms
wishing you were close to me, but there's a place for us
i thought i was gonna die
but i didn't and here i am
still and torn up with egg on my face and hate in my heart
i'd try to give it to anyone else, but it wouldn't be fair
it's always been for me
i had you even tricked, didn't want you to leave me
just like everyone had before
but then you went away and didn't even say goodbye
drive me to the dump throw me over into the rumble
i'm nothing but broken bones and tangled up love
