long time gone
but your legs could save me
long way out
but your kiss could keep me
from hitting that rock bottom
i've been hiding from
so long
which way up?
please do not ask me
which way home?
i wish you could tell me
but your lips are sealed
and oh so far away
from me
it's unbelievable
barely poetry
not even doggerel
but omigod
your legs could save me
jeses christ
i don't know what i'm saying
please forgive me
please forgive me
but you won't forgive me
please talk to me
but you won't talk to me
i know
and i know why
and it is killing me
it's killing me
