little baby in her right arm
she's you're best friend, shares a beat with your heart
but you'll leave her, and she didn't think she'd be left alone, she should have known better
you should have know by now,
that you can savor what you can taste,
but you cleaned your plate
like a glutton who swallowed his own tougue
but i wanted to be there with you,
but you've gone to meet your father,
and the beliefs that you follow i hope there true
and when you get there,
will you see stairs covered in gold, or were these
lies that you were told
are we strays?
have we lost our way?
because i'm growing older
and nothings feeling safe
are we strays, is it safe for us to go?
i'm not scared the pages are wearing thin
from this book i've read,
has got me tied in knots with themes and plots from other peoples lives.
but i'm not them, their not me
life is a gift horse check its teeth
don't end your life
just get through the night
oh no stick a knife into me
now i can never touch you but i still can smell your perfume where we sleep
wish i was your clothes, draped tight around your bones
holding you like a rope
are we strays?
have we lost our way?
because i'm growing older
and nothings feeling safe
are we strays, is it safe for us to go?
i love you, i hate you i can't think at all
i love you, i hate you i can't let you go.
