lyrics

Add to This

All it was
was time within
some space
Call it practical
or cowardice
Meaning: I could see
the light of day
Meaning: I would leave
and run away

All it was
were days with
X’s drawn
Call it clerical
a job for one
Believe me I can hear
that lonesome song
Believe me freedom comes
when pain is gone

Add to this
your smile that
rainy night
we fit
inside my coat
combined
our gait
to make it back
uptown
Add to this
the reason
it’s a lie
a catch
that someone
such as I would let
this God damned
guard
come down

I’m not alone
I’m not the only one

All it was
was memory
in cells
Call it
what you want,
it haunts me still
Reel the line
and free what
cannot breathe
Maybe give it time
to see what might
be seen?

Add to this
The way you
fit inside
inset
all splayed
and pitched
astride and knit
our fingers in
a braid

Add to this
that cooling
in July
no sense
no way to
wonder why
unless
you know a
shadowed
brain

No way
to win
No way
back in
But I’ll say it
Admit it
again:

I miss that
long lost
friend
