He caused me inescapable pain
It was like the Heavens opened and let out the rain
And I’m thrashing in this field of grass
Trying to find something that will last
And he just laughs
And sashays
I’m over his games 
And his power plays
As he tries to pin me down
To a point
But I’ve got heart
So go roll your joint
To make up for whatever you can never reach
And I’m not here to whine and beseech
But stand up to you
In your confident glare
I know how it was 
Because I was there
And I felt every moment
And read all the signs
But I wouldn’t do it again
Not for diamond mines
Outside of the forest 
Where we used to live
You ask for my love
But I’ve got to forgive
You for your weary rap at my door
I couldn’t have cared less any more
As you tell me your secrets
And share your light
But it’s long past gone
And it’s not alright 
And you’re choosy but honest
As you sing the blues
I’m level headed and laid back 
And walk my own shoes
But I take them off
Before I enter the temple
Bow my head, so reverential 
And you take off your cap
And hold it in your hands
I’ll not acquiesce to your demands
But bloom within a summer song
Though it’s been winter all along
And the years of young are wearing thin
Pining over what could have been
But what is is all that exists
And I see the sky clear 
Through the mists
The one and all 
The few, the many
If you’re looking for hatred
There isn’t any
Only a garden
Behind a wall
I thought that I knew
But I didn’t at all
