Mrs. Green I would never release you
The hot, bright stars are blazing my eyes, indenting the retina.
Mingling with my loose skin, strumming to heaven
Herding pure lost clouds like some sheep
Look! There is my escape, dancing the moonlight in crossed eyes
The crash of lightening to my command
Frightened young one's holding hand in hand
Winter gazes from behind, stalking the enraptured move
My lips are dried up and broken in, nothing your supernatural powers can't soothe
The fingernails are now dented
The earth is fallen to gloom
Desperate letters have cut me
I am now bleeding your tears
So, where is this relaxation? Hopefully coping with my moods
Sudden thrash of loneliness rapidly takes over my space
I simply can't take much more of this, I must slow down my pace
Struggling, moaning worked out horses on Highway forty-four
Shred me down to pieces; rip me open, stare at my glowing core
I see nothing but lovers
The sight is hurting my knees
Stomping over my lost one's
Cutting edges with knives
Please see to it that my ninth daughter receives my grandma's couch
For god's sake, where are all the starving hounds?
My second father has died, and the grave is out of bounds
Forgetfulness is killing the inside of poor me
I am depressed and jaded, hell, let me be.
