Watch me unravel,
I’m me, me be, goddamn I…
I’ll soon be naked.
Lying on the floor,
Oh no, it go, it gone, bye,
I have come undone.
Hold this thread as I…
Who I, I think, I sink and…
As I walk away.
Madame I do beseech-you,
Would you take my heart in-hand?
Kisses sweet as honey-dew,
Please, more than I could withstand.
Your eyes hide blessed charity,
Lips that are ripe for plucking,
Your voice is sweet clarity,
That I’d compare to nothing.
Beauty there and innocence,
To touch your skin would madden,
Or bring serene blissfulness,
I leave that to you Madame.
Inside there’s faint whispering,
Of something lying dormant,
Something small that’s flickering,
Ever so slowly forming.
What it is I dare-not-say,
But it cannot go ignored,
Or else it might fade-away,
And never to be explored.
Perhaps thinking wistfully,
Impossible to define,
Perchance we just kissed-fully,
It needn’t be locked inside.
Train is whining low,
I’m so lonesome I could cry,
Time goes crawling by.
See a robin weep,
When the leaves begin to die,
Lost the will to live.
Silent falling star,
It lights up a purple sky,
Wonder where you are.
Pieces that I’ve collected,
All that’s left of you lingers,
They’ll never be connected,
Plucked away by thin fingers.
I’d have given anything,
Just to feel your warm embrace,
To feel our hearts opening,
As I gazed upon your-face.
It would’ve been heavenly,
Standing in the rain kisses,
Instead hearts fall heavily,
And all that’s left is pieces
Slowly goes the night,
So lover, lover goodbye,
Hang my head and cry.
With my trembling hand,
I trace the ghosts of your bones,
I toss and I sweat.
Yeah dark is my night,
But sleep brings you back to life,
Darker is my day.
Mercy, I beg forgiveness,
For loving you too deeply,
For being so defenceless,
Guarding my heart so feebly.
I chased your heart recklessly
So I did this to myself,
But you can’t go blamelessly,
Just leave me upon a-shelf.
True, I loved you heart-and-soul,
I opened my heart gladly,
But you feared to lose-control,
Now all I ask is mercy.
Weathered the storm amassing,
And we held our heads aloft,
Still think of her in-passing,
And everything that we-lost.
What we had was genuine,
But you let it fade away,
Now it seems so saccharine,
Was it always just child’s-play?
Every word meant sincerely,
To yours my heart was tethered,
Left with regret severely,
Now all I feel is weathered.
Wedded to those ideas,
To love and light and restraint,
All those things the devil-fears,
Can chip away like old paint.
Loved you almost instantly,
Guided by unseen forces,
Followed a mute symphony,
My heart dragged by wild horses.
Headlong into tragedy,
My heart left cold and jaded,
It was all just fantasy,
That one day we’d be wedded.
