'awake' cd
the microphone died
the procession
the time escapes
faceless edna
I know the world ended tonight
you're holding my world
I'm always living with your ghost
paper lanterns
awake

'sewn with stitches' cd
tied to nowhere
painted post road
don't stand in my room
you're everything I don't need
there's nothing to explain
one day you'll be sorry too
you're an act that can't be followed
brown balloons
chutes and ladders
auburn aumbry
bedsit bones
the ides of may
closed curtains
every night

'every night' cd
so much changed
the strangest moment
send me the pillow you dream on

self-titled cd/cassette
allover fainting
down a pier nightly
in a gilded gown
kathleen's caffeine
marisa

other songs
by the way
the clock won't move
never mind
someday we'll be married
something special

Allover Fainting
Andy liked your face
and he picture-framed you chancily
socialites are graced
hook, line and sinker  

your carpentry
can you feel the city shake
with every plaster face you break?  

a veil of teeth to stir
you’re working out of turn
the dealers stop and turn
allover you  

I believe
your hands mothball matchless magic
some spokes and thirty varnished coats  

a veil of teeth to stir
you’re working out of turn
the dealers stop and turn
allover you  

a taxless toll
bestown by Grace the Cold
who does she really know?
not you
and me
may I watch you breathe
over afternoon tea?
it’s free
it’s just afternoon tea
it’s free
it’s just afternoon tea

Auburn Aumbry 
go and tell me what you mean
gone to bed by nine-fifteen
there’s a one-foot-tall gray habit
tearing up a nearby attic  

if you won’t make my doorbell chime
then everything’s a waste of time
I could like a pink care package
crashing down above the wreckage  

it’s all without my grasp
and how long can this last?
I don’t mind not having much to do  

I could send a host of wishes
cigarettes and lemon kisses
nothing wrapped and nothing sour
owlets passing by the hour  

and everything is wrong
my sickness eight years on
a cure is tucked away for a rainy day
I cull ten tedious tasks
my catboat has no mast
and in my aumbry no one comes to see me  

sewn to pieces, chins that glisten
laughing fits and aneurysms
I know what it means to be
posied into dour submission  

and everything's gone wrong
my maladies are on
a cure is being saved for a rainy day
I cull ten tedious tasks
my catboat has no mast
and in my aumbry no one wants to see me

Awake
something stirs me from my sleep
my mind won’t let me dream
and I’ve been up all night
like every other night
you know, it’s so uncomfortable
when nothing feels alright
and I can’t sleep at all

your hands are picking at my heart strings
your heart is holding what mine’s missing
I’m staring straight into a pillow
the moonlight can’t shine through my window

I’m lying here wide-open
at the far end of the hall
I’ve got nothing to do
 I’ve got no plans at all
the room is drab and empty
 the air is still and cold
won’t you take me in your arms?
'cause I need a little soul
there’s dust around my footsteps
that I can’t seem to sweep
I feel a little tired 
when daylight starts to creep
can you lull me to sleep?

Bedsit Bones
bedsit bones in broomed rooms
doomed to croon in broomed rooms
until they go
don’t I know  

smile while they hold their nose
at the worst of times they always show
so it goes  

they’re courting time with dowelling dough
their bedsit bones have no control
I must be too naive to know
and so I just go

bedsit bones in broomed rooms
doomed to croon in broomed rooms
until they sadly go
let it go  

I’d drive myself into a pole
because all the streets are stocked with drolls
but I’ve two places more to go today
anyway  

a brilliant scheme for well-laid liars
you don’t care and I don’t either
so stand around alongside your new friend
in the end  

top

Brown Balloons
your heart is a volcano
just the same as mine
flashes warm my mind
till the end of time
arming up an armchair
peering in a well
dragged from out of nowhere
glowing like a belle

all the world disturbs
the sense of quiet in my heart
if I may live inside you
I could watch it fall apart

your fingers scrape my spine
your voice vestures my ear
your eyes are brown balloons
that shine when you appear
your cigarettes alight
glimmers in the snow
all lavender flowers
beaming through the room

I don’t want this modern life’s protrusion
in this room
if I may live inside you
nothing else could ever loom

top

By the Way
I want you to know who I am
I want you to be unafraid
I moved on up
I loused it up
fallen by the wayside to fade

I sprung from my bed in a sweat
I head-counted all that I've wrecked
I packed your things
and swallowed the ring
back to bed I crept

what do you mean
I'm just an in-between
the clock still goes 'round
while your heart careens

top

Chutes and Ladders
with one foot in the grave
and one foot in the bathrobe
kissing a teething veil
to make it better
makes it better
walking under ladders
doesn’t mean a thing
and you can start anew

I get no noel
wrapped up in your hell
shaking with the ground
up on ladders
I don’t need the grief
I don’t need you creeps
down, around
chutes and ladders  

ever-changing moods
in what you’re saying
I put up with rounds reflecting
pools all around me
self-inflicted reincarnation
so just come over
start anew  

I have something new
I’ve made it for you
buried in my room
like it matters
I don’t need the grief
I don’t need you creeps
up, inside
chutes and ladders  

I’ll bury my hatchet
where you left it
I’m still waiting for a bus that never came
it’s all the same  

I get no noel
I’m still eyeing for a way out of hell
shocked and shelled
I don’t need the grief
I don’t need you creeps
you can have your chutes and ladders

The Clock Won't Move
I want you to show me
what I'm made of
I want you to come in
and slap my wrist up
it's only fair
it's all right there
in front of your face
cupped in your pale hands

to your little box
there's no combination
in my catish socks
it could blow wide open
the clock won't move
til I get through
won't you change my point of view?

top

Closed Curtains
living without you is no trouble for me
through and through, I'm rid of you, and at last I can breathe
this solitude makes everything so easy for me
it's so much more than everything that I thought it could be

the first time I saw your face, it all felt so new
but thinking of the day you're gone, well it can't come too soon
so take off now, you can leave, take everything you see
I'm taking a little more foresight and a little less catastrophe

well I think of then, I think of now, and everything's okay
and my life has just begun since I've gone away
I'm living and I'm giving like there's no tomorrow
I've filled the gap, so could you just move on along now?

for every time I saw your face with nothing but scorn
kissing me with loathing for the day I was born
you pushed me around just to see how much I would bend
you told me how you wanted it, well I suppose you once did

and don't you think about it when you're lying sick in bed?
how no one will turn up there to make sure you've been fed
well I couldn't care less, I'm young and I'm full
with all the things I've needed that you couldn't secure

the last time I saw your face, with whole worlds beside you
frost over the windows that was born from inside you
I touched your hand, you looked away, your heart it did wince
I thank the stars the likes of you I haven't seen since

you don't know how to treat someone, you are such a let-down
I thought I'd found a lighthouse when all I did was frown
I'm packing up, I'm letting go, guess it's better late than never
I'm in the clouds, I won't come down, walking by as ever

top

Don’t Stand in my Room
don’t stand in my room
I don’t want to hear from you anymore
turning my life on its ear
was never enough for you, dear

don’t light up my life
yours is the light I don’t need
why do you disturb my sleep?
when did you become such a creep?
when did you become so psychotic?

I’m at an age where I don’t care for your opinion
but something tells me you’re gonna give it anyway
I’m at an age where I don’t care for your opinion
but you’re looking like you’ve got something to say

don’t sit in my chair
I’m sorry I wasted eight years
I’m not the only one here who failed
so please don’t send any more hate mail

don’t come near my room
I don’t want to hear your voice anymore

Down a Pier Nightly
so long
I’d stay here night and day
but I’ve grown sick
of dodging hurled batons and bombs
falling down
on both knees
drafting up some treaty
peering down a pier nightly

felled upon ice
a bicycle slides  

drawn
the stare of Saint Orlan
vexing
my feigned calm
how could it be wrong?  

felled upon ice
a bicycle slides
a pier is for me
up here nightly
Saint Orlan’s with me
so give me, give me surgery  

top

Every Night
I can't snap my fingers
if I want it now
you can't plan the next move
to make it work somehow
you're beside someone new
I'm beside myself
touches feel like glaciers
the room's a freezing hell

it's all there without me
it's all gone away
it's all there within me
there'll be hell to pay
you can be without it
you can just go home
I question your motives
I don't think you know
nothing good is easy
nothing's in my room
you can live to curse me
you can just walk home

I know that this parcel
is just a letter bomb
I know I could forget you
if I could live so long
but Halloween came early
Christmas never came
life with you unfurling
pins inside my brain

so now I'm taking my turn to give my point of view
and if you think things are unfair, you're not the only one
I could sit beside you if I want to stand in line
but I can't look at you and breathe at the same time
because the mirrors at the centers of your eyes,
reflecting your freezing heart at twice its natural size,
fill you with disappointment and envy
each hour more that, without you, I get by

I almost understood you
we were almost close
every night without you
saw you someplace else
I have waived away my share of parting shots
I can't be bothered crawling around for what I haven't got
I don't need to frown all day, or to call you names
scanning every inch of carpet as if something remains

Faceless Edna
Faceless Edna did dream to give up her ring
she laughed to herself for thinking such things
she laid on the beach, stared up through the rifts
thought "there should be more to a nice life like this"  

encircled by fools, and cowards and pigs
consoled by the foam when the waves hit the beach
alarmed by her dreams, by night and by day
hankering to be rid of Mister Pontellier  

she sat at the piano and picked
they thought her half-mad when she’d move a wrist
and what else to do?
stirred and torn through
despondent and shaken  

in horror, her face turned the color of cream
when she was disturbed from her life’s stupid dream
no matter how late, she agreed to wait
holding fast to a morrow while kept by a gate  

she sat at the piano and picked
they thought her half-mad when she’d move a wrist
and what else to do?
stirred and torn through
stirred and torn through  

in the ocean, like stone, she plunged her young bones
pointless and drab as the life she had known
the stars looked like milk, through blackness they shone
the foam caused a chill and she let herself go
she kissed the wet earth, it ceased to seem damp
the mud held the warmth and the glow of a lamp  

top

I Know the World Ended Tonight
I know the world ended tonight
so why does the street still have lights?
now that I know that these curtains have closed  

I know that the stars have burned out
I don’t need to look from my house
now that I know that there’s no place left to go  

and I’m told all the time
it takes up my time
being shown and told all the time

in view is a street without lights
it’s because the world ended tonight
I know it’s because tomorrow won’t know what once was  

top

I'm Always Living with your Ghost
I'm always living with your ghost
I rearranged my room to make it go away
but it stayed
and it changed
and it said:
"I will never leave
I'm living in your home"
why it never goes is uncertain
it's not for me to know
impossibly tired and sleepless
I can't live anymore in this space
so creep into these dreams
and tip-toe around

top

The Ides of May
I'll unfurl my parasol until your beam does fade
I will not think twice tonight to call a spade a spade
call the bluff, but you don't know me
give me back the things you owe me
keep your hands clean on the ides of May  

I have seen your type before, at least a hundred time
you will foul up all my plans, so kindly stand aside
find the specters in all corners
shadows rising from these waters
keep your eyes out on the ides of May  

I don't care for how you tie me down and scratch your chin
you might catch a moment's rest with so much still in spin
I've done nothing more in this life
than being your gentle middlebrow midwife
but keep your eyes out on the ides of May

you tell me to learn to let things go as time goes on
you want me to turn my cheek from all that's going on
I have slaved away all day
and is that all you have to say?
keep your hands clean on the ides of May  

In a Gilded Gown
a frosty day, just as you say
twitching sticks in disarray
the clowns in town with gilded gowns
stare you down without a sound
the ghouls are out on you and me
standing lifeless on your own two feet  

people in the crowd are so uptight and rude
in a gilded gown you don your shinty shoes  

it was once said by some old fool
that once you’re off than you can’t lose
yet each new plan of your design
fantastic, just as mine, with time
don’t collapse on wintry grief
standing lifeless on your own two feet  

people in the crowd are so uptight and rude
in a gilded gown you don your shinty shoes
accumulating fatal flaws now by the pound
I won’t ask how it happened because I know you don’t know how

Kathleen's Caffeine
I pace around my room
a heatwave every June
the day falls through my fingers all despite its length
I can’t keep down a single thing I ate today
I don’t sleep every night
I wonder what that’s like
a passing train outside beats like a metronome
if I lay here another moment, I might turn to stone  

you bail on all our plans
and think I’ll understand
you come around here talking like there’s nothing wrong
you leave me speechless even as the words come strong
I don’t like you at all
you make me screen my calls
I wish you’d disappear each time you call me out
I see that you’re approaching and I choose another route  

I sleep here every night
I might run for my life
battalions beat my door down when I draw the line
there’s nothing on my hands I have more of than time
I started five years late
I guess you can’t relate
you light up when you treat me like a piece of trash
you want to pick and choose which parts you want to last
you build it up and tear it down around my way
I count my sheep all night and clutch my chest all day  

and you’re no good for me
I’d prefer shaking palsy
anyday

Marisa
Marisa sang of good times
her lank limbs shook from cold
the night she took her sweet time
and lay beside the road  

Marisa would lift a frail hand
to shield her eyes from light
she’d slip deep into covers
and shiver up inside  

and if your room were all you knew
wouldn’t you be angry too?
wouldn’t you burn up the same
and never leave your house again?  

Marisa hung her coat up
inside a drab, damp room
she vowed to see a better day
and said “it won’t come soon”  

she’d look to find another place
where sidewalks aren’t so cruel
still wherever angel’s feet took her
they’d blister in her threadbare shoes  

and if your bed were all you knew
wouldn’t you be hostile too?
no more patience can you spend
where means aren’t justified by ends
self-absorbed and hard to please
vengeful, bitter and naive
Marisa clung to swollen glands
and scrubbed the dirt off from her hands  
she scrubbed the dirt off from her hands

The Microphone Died
bundled bones in a room
the microphone died
his residue soaking the thorn in my side
and those all around
their eyes on the ground
funerary light storms piercing the window

you rose from the ground
with his old coronet
stampeding the house of Marie Antoinette
sounding the bells
she did not understand
the delicateness in her hands

and I know
your eyes are closed
till daylight passes through the window
why won't you wake up?
I won't sleep at all
and I want you to know

and so you were gone
the trees scratched your window
the noise all around and no one above you
your leg wrapped in gauze
your face cut by claws
of the rickety bones of the ghosts in the floorboards

his eyes are closed
'though daylight passes through the window
he'll never wake up
we won't sleep for days
and I want you to stay

top

Never Mind
it’s all in the stars
I know you’ll understand
I won’t push or pull
it’s all in your hands

barrels I have scraped
but I have not lost faith
it’s all so unfair
you’ve tucked yourself away so far from here

why don’t you come by?
you can be alone some other time
I’ll never mind
never mind

One Day You'll be Sorry Too
I met you raising hell
on a carousel
acting like the envy of the town
it's hard to face your room
when everything you hate's in it
it's what you dreamt of long ago
you've made your bed, now lie in it

so you're going home
so not to die alone
and I know you're afraid of getting old
I've learned to get along
ever since you left me here
you can take another's hand
and watch your memories disappear

so you've made your choice
and so it isn't me
I know you think you've won the lottery
it's hard to carry on
without a trace of you
I'm wrapped in every little chore
and one day you'll be sorry too

one day when you're old
in no mood for games
he will leave you cold
it's just as sure as rain
one day when you're old
he will leave you cold
it's just as sure as rain

Painted Post Road
"the pain in my neck wraps around my back," she said
"comfort is the toughest nut to crack," she said
the hunchbacked backs of Painted Post Road groan
every one just tired of being stoned

"I might as well be dead," she said, undisturbed
"I'll perish with the parish in an aging church"
it's been so long since 1994
this century's not quite what she had hoped for

she lept out of the womb
her feet landing in early middle age
and so old age was wasted on the young
again

she held her breath, watched moss grow on the bed
icepick eyes outside inhaled in hail
"life ended abruptly when you freed me
this awful creaking staircase wants to keep me"

she walked outside the room
and arminarmed herself across the lawn
lest old age be wasted on the young
again

Paper Lanterns
your glow fell onto me
you disappeared into the sea
I want wind to blow
me away

however much I walk around
your paper lanterns can't be found
you traced my shape
and now the movie's over

we are alone
under the snow
under the clouds
over the ground

we are alone
over the snow
over the clouds
under the ground

my glow fell onto you
in a lighted house beside the avenue
you want skies to fly you away

wherever you may walk around
you will be palpitating
your chest will rest
for all time

we are alone
under the snow
under the clouds
over the ground

we are alone
over the snow
over the clouds
under the ground

The Procession
the procession crosses Marlow Bridge tonight
the deepest of regrets now brought to light
the band plays "As Time Goes By"
all the while

the eulogies recall a storied past
you knew too much to think that it would last
grieving faces gather on the grass
and are gone

a heavy burden fell into your hands
I was impossible to understand
the end so clear, the words so out of hand
once again

you looked beyond the ocean towards your home
until he took you up into his room
the glow of freedom overcame your limbs
right there with him

wherever now your thoughts and feelings hide
you know it's no place for me to reside
but don't you know that I'm still on your side
for all time

the same moon keeps us company tonight
I'd stood there waiting underneath its light
I hope you're living happily again
with nothing left for us to imagine
there's nothing more for us to imagine

the procession crosses Marlow Bridge tonight
the grip of awful feelings now subsides

Send me the Pillow You Dream On
pale daylight's crumbling into orange dust
pictures stay tucked away like they'll never rust
I've been seeing I've been awake too long
send me the pillow that you dream on

letters lie forgotten in a dusty box
my valentine's buried under frozen rocks
the sun's been turned to black
the moonlight's much too strong
send me the pillow that you dream on

my lungs may ice over my old downed kite
people pass, walk away from a pitch gray light
their eyes are distant planets
my brain is locked till dawn
send me the pillow that you dream on

and if you can imagine
a more draining time to quit
as you feel the pressure mounting
and see your health declining
then tell me
speak clearly
make sure I can hear
I won't stop you
I won't get through
when you stop and stare

nothing's more unsettling than to face the night
transmissions fall short of a waning site
their words are vague and jumbled
nothing's clearly drawn
send me the pillow that you dream on

so where can someone look to
lying down on tracks?
and how can you see daylight
when your eyes can't see through glass?
and can you show me meaning
and can't you take me walking?
send me the pillow that you dream on
send me the pillow that you dream on

Someday We’ll be Married
you walked in the room
I was so amused
my heart fell down the stairs with you

I just want to go
everywhere with you
my hopes are all tied up in rope

all wrapped up with string
someday we’ll be married
chapel bells will ring
all around you

I just want to be
wrapped up in your arms
hands spooling caffeinated yarn

all wrapped up with string
someday we’ll be married
chapel bells will ring
all around you

I just don’t care
if I fall down and die
so long as you are by my side
I swoon right into your room
and down the aisle with you
with you
and no one else but you
just you
and no one else but you

Something Special
you think you’re something special with your sycophant admirers
it’s just as well to kick them around as long as you’re all smiles
just go on and come between me and my dreams and my ambitions
you’ve gotta look alive now while you’re filling out prescriptions

it’s laughable to realize how you think that you have helped me
by making sure I stay away from anyone who likes me
well I know it’s not your fault, that you were born to cause distress
how you got so far along is anybody’s guess

and you’re so right
all of the time
standing on your milk-crate pedestal
you pull yourself around
with your bad mouth
it’s alright
they’re not pining anymore, sweetheart
it all comes back to you
but it’s alright

you lost your mind ten years ago and no one thought to tell you
so you burn your candles at both ends to build a cult around you
well I know that you play dumb to keep your minions in your palm
so many friends you’d like to slap but you’re just so far gone

you’re gonna need some other way
you hypocrite
you’ve got some kind of nerve
to wear it on your face
and sound your mouth
they’ve all gone
you’d better mind your p’s and q’s, my dear
it all comes back to you
and they’ve all gone

top

you talk and make no sense
your patience has been spent
I think something was there, but I don’t know where it went

my hands are tied
but I can’t disconnect
it’s out of hand
once there’s nothing left

any day now you’ll forget
all the things you once could do
before you wrecked your own life out of spite
as you slip further back from me
into a marriage, stale and cheap
all I can do is stare in disbelief
and time goes on and things get worse
there’s almost nothing left of us
there’s almost nothing left of how we were
so much changed

The Strangest Moment
fallen twice from good advice
up all night in need of light
and you’re closing every window
so I can find my own way
on this day

it was the strangest moment
to think I wouldn't have known it
I have no space to regret
little things that I’ve wrecked
and so I wish you well
from two steps left of hell
it all seems so peculiar
to come to such a thing

bruised and marred inside your car
your strange ways prevailed that day
you were glowing in elation
warmed with fascination
to see it through in your way

such a lovely world
for such a funny girl
and it’s never how it seems
when you won’t say what you mean
to me

it was the strangest moment
to think I wouldn't have known it
I have no space to regret
 little things that I’ve wrecked
and so I wish you well
from two steps left of hell
it all seems so peculiar
to come to such a thing

There's Nothing to Explain
I waited six months for your plane
am I surprised that nothing came?
depends on the day
does that sound okay?  

I walked a thousand planks for you
I took the shots you asked me to
there’s no more in view
there’s nothing in view  

and so there’s nothing left to say
nothing to explain
I could find something to say
one of these days  

all I hold dear is singed and frayed
you’re happy leaving me this way
and nothing’s okay
it’s never okay

I stare at walls, I gather dust
now that I’ve lost all faith in us
you do what you must
because you must  

and so there’s nothing left to say
nothing to explain
I could find another way
maybe someday  

I tied my shoe and kicked the beam
still I don’t know what living means
I think that’s obscene
do you know what I mean?  

I’ve run it all into the ground
take it lying down
wedged inside with these four walls
after all

Tied to Nowhere
I start anew standing in place here
I know that I’ve been tied to nowhere
my shears are stuck, my breaths are droning
the morning lights are too long coming

these nights drag on, relentless, somehow
this frozen heartbeat set ablaze now
plans in the making captivate me
they’re all within things that I don’t see 

this brand new day flays every prior one
I forge my own with aid from no one
my eyes are pained for time to pass on
I sit and wait for time to pass on

TheTime Escapes
must you act on every whim?
what do you see in him?
every ragbag has its day
but someone’s standing in its way  
slapped across the wrist
neither seen nor missed
the time escapes through sieves  
the bedroom's inscribed readily
ruined now by infamy
what a really awful dream  
hammer every oddity
hail the monarchy
freezing, still, untouched
the ticking never stops
receive the spell, then live in hell  
they never raise a fist
slapped across their wrists
their time escapes through sieves

You’re an Act That Can’t be Followed
all these stupid things I’ve done
have left me on my own
feel free to take your time
writing it all down
there’s no shame in being human
still, I think of you and I’m in ruins

you’re an act that can’t be followed
by Mennonites or pill swallowers
always dragging this behind me-
if it’s so wrong, why don’t you try me?

you ask me not to have regrets
when they’re all that I have left
I throw myself at you
and you yawn and scratch your neck
I can be unlikeable
I have been known to offend you
there’s no shame in being human
I see your name- and I’m in ruins

you’re an act that can’t be followed
by Mennonites or pill swallowers
talking up a mannequin
as if I’ll ever love again

charming like there’s no tomorrow
I’d lose a toe to see you smile
you’re so very baggage-worthy
if it’s so wrong, why won’t you try me?

place yourself where I can’t follow
guess I’ll acquaint myself with shadows
it’s a taste I’d love to swallow
and you’re an act who won’t be followed

You’re Everything I Don’t Need
the way this song begins is with a pale, submissive moan
but nothing’s doomed for good, even when everything’s gone wrong
and you might be the reason that I’m giving up this phase
talking to my curtains that I can’t contain the strain

the way this story goes is just like every one before
wedged inside a bedroom, taking cover on the floor
go on wielding your fingers, because I’m leaving it behind
you’re kicking in my ankles because the plague has cursed your mind

you celebrate in twitches
when I’m all sewn up in stitches
you’re everything I don’t need
and nothing I can use

the way this story goes, it isn’t hard to figure out
you know it’s one part loneliness and twenty-one parts doubt
you’ve stabbed me in the neck so many times I can’t keep count
there was a time I wanted you, but this I’ll do without

I’d just like to live inside a decent, gentle life
as long as you’ve been around, I can’t say anything feels right
you’ve got yourself together in a cheap and perfect fit
just go on living in paradise, because I’m done with it

you celebrate in twitches
when I’m all sewn up in stitches
you’re everything I don’t need
and nothing I can use

in your brain there’s a riot
but don’t get too excited
you’re everything I don’t need
and nothing I can use

You're Holding my World
it's been sixteen months
since I could sleep through one night in my skin
the bad dreams close in

it's like sixteen years
each time a detail comes back to my mind
the time slows, then dies

and those days have died
to think where you sleep brings a pain to my side
you just can't decide

I want you to know
you're holding my world
there's nothing to cling to anymore
and not much to care for
and still you could take what I bleed
one day you'll find what you need

and how I regret
small things that I could have said or done
but never will

wherever you are
it must be good having time for yourself
my old clothes are ruining my health

I'm walking the streets
I'm counting the days
you're holding my world
and letting it fall through
and I knew that I'd lose you
anyway
that's all I have to say
