I stare down my cigarette, and as I look
Through tired eyes, the horizon
Blurs, and I see reality
Creep in between the trees.
Tears distort the fragile sky,
The colours drain away and
Drip like falling rain
From the gutter of heaven.
Everywhere I look
Our eyes meet
Across the void of pain.
Eyelashes turning inward, scratching deep.
Drenched and desperate I sit
Crying these droplets of pain and pleasure.
One after another they roll,
At your request.
Through tired eyes, the horizon
Blurs, and I see reality
Creep in between the trees.
Tears distort the fragile sky,
The colours drain away and
Drip like falling rain
From the gutter of heaven.
Everywhere I look
Our eyes meet
Across the void of pain.
Eyelashes turning inward, scratching deep.
Drenched and desperate I sit
Crying these droplets of pain and pleasure.
One after another they roll,
At your request.
