And when I know we’re fucked, I’ll halve the pile and share my pills with you.
During the fight,
I said ‘yeah right’,
When you insisted that I’d visit, that you’d write.
Now, I know you’re working hard,
So I never hear from you, and that’s fine.
You look the same on TV as when you were mine.
I don’t want to hear you say
“It shouldn’t really be this way”,
Because I like this way just fine.
When it turns out, I hope that it turns out…
I hope that it turns out the way that you dreamed.
And with your body next to me, its sleepy sighing
Sounds like waves upon a sea too far to reach.
And I think that I know the bitter dismay of a lover who brought fresh bouquets every day, when she turned him away to remember some knave who once gave just one rose, one day, years ago.
I’m sorry to go.
I’ve loved you all so.
But this is the worst trip I’ve ever been on.
