you tried to erase me from your bones
as you drove your point home
talking in backwards rhymes
as you make sugar pill eyes at me
it's a long winding road
to get yourself back on the right path
singled out among the space between the stars
and the overflowing laugh lines of
tree tops as they bow before your feet
marked by dirty thoughts and
stolen glances
you tried to erase me from your bones
suffocated my name in worn out pillow cases
as your bruised ego stares through vacant eyes
blinking back memories holding back surprises
rewinding time which each calculated open/close motion
you had me fooled
i followed your lead to the end of the line
and sat for days and days
staring off into the abyss of your heart
your empty shaking lonely half beating
locket of a heart you keep tied to a string
that's only allowed to wander in silent suffering
