What I Say

I guess I could make it up by nine
though I'm not able to share my mind
I will be there right on time
to help you slowly undo and unwind

because I say I love you, I do
and I have to see it through
I think neither of us have a clue
you give me light into my blue.

I say all the right things
and my love for you stings
I'm wasting the time and what it brings
I've given up on detaching strings.

You notice my absence too soon
barely making it up by nine in ruin
why can't we put it off till noon
go and throw your light at my moon

and I say we'll make it.
