Back To You

Wednesday, March 30th, 2011

quietly
and gracefully
you move around the weight of the evidence
forever side stepping your own shadow and knowing
only what you wanna know
what you wanna know (x2)
says drama queen we’re leaving
say your goodbyes for the hundred millionth time
this house is pushing us out
it’s just turning heads now

can’t place attachment
to such a contraption
at such an early hour
in such a desperate state
i won’t rest on promises
or guarantees or contracts
that don’t lend any power
or influence to fate
this device may make
the vulnerable visible
and the complex simple
blast delusions of grandeur

ask me how i am, ask me how i’ve been
and then stand and watch and hope and wait and with any luck
i will be an earthquake
and i will clear a space here
where you can put pictures and silence and sleep
and you can stop asking ’cause you’ll be

you’ll be
down in the centre of the earth with me
now...
