He escapes my thoughts again,
But my thoughts can't get away.
Broke my neck to impress,
But he wasn't even looking.
Shady lady weeps alone,
Cobwebs falling to dust.
Complaints,
Ripping claws into soft pulse,
Faded into the unknown,
Breakages in the wondering,
What would happen if it could be different.
Falling into line,
Crying under covers,
Hoping he'll never see,
He never looks.
Love, the sweet tenderness that everyone speaks of,
Is just barbed wire tying me to his throat,
Betrayed by my intentions,
Outmoved and undressed,
You've taken it all.
