You know who you are.
I just want to tell everyone that I definitely just took a drink of Pepsi and I'm guessing it's mine, but it actually could be someone else's.
My bed is so cold, without you here to warm it for me.
And my lips still shake when I hear your voice,
That we recorded on my answering machine.
And I died, but just a fraction of the time I played it out,
Like the music box that refused to play,
That we put on the shelf, near our bed that's getting so cold.
I'm grabbing onto pillows instead of feeling your body.
So take a walk outside, trace your steps in reverse to me.
I'd follow you, but the leaves that came covered your footsteps.
Winter froze them. And in Spring, they melted away from me with you.
(Things were so different last year.)
This Spring, it's so long, and the nights are, too.
I'm so tired of being tired of feeling tired without you.
(Things were so different last year.)
If my pen doesn't stop, then we'll create an analogy,
Because the endless spilling of my pen,
Is to the staggering movement of your steps.
They never end, because the endless spilling of my pen is . . .
Something, I don't know. But I know it never ends.
And it rains so much this time of year,
Trace your steps back to me.
I'm so alone.
The hope to end my loneliness has driven me to find only more.
You're so out of reach.
Will you speak to me?
You're so out of reach.
The only time I move, is to shake when I hear your voice on my machine.
When I'm on my bed, frozen, but thinking that your voice will be a,
Preface to the message that you'll leave -
Because I know you're better than this. And I'm so tired.
You slipped through my hands like the sand that fell thorugh our hour glass.
We're so out of time. Can I call you?
I want to call you, because things were so different last year.
I stand still; a wave of my hand couldn't stop you.
Should I be chasing you down, off the porch we had to leave,
Because it got too cold? (Should I leave this house?)
Through the garden with the lions' teeth that bloom just like you will.
Trip on the sidewalk where you walked me home, because I am so tired.
