Maxing Out My Credit Card

The plate clattered to the floor
And the one I adore
Don’t love me no more
But enough of that, dry your tears
There’s snot on my sleeve and time gone by in years
How did the child in me
Grow to be
Thirty three
It’s almost unfathomable and destiny
Calls infintily
Go to your husband with the bracelet you wear
With the space you hold and the gown you tear
As he’s dancing with you
And the floor clears for you two
As he sweeps you up into his might
And you finally say “he’s a bit of alright”
And the mystery dances with itself through the night
Do you remember when we had that fight
You know the massive one on the phone
You know when I collapsed and you were alone
Despite company
Why didn’t you just hang up on me
If that’s what you felt
Was I the weight or the cards that you dealt
On speakerphone?
She moves round the kitchen of her home
And I resolve to close the window
Try as he may I will not let him in though
Because of the betrayal
And all of the advance that he put up for sale
When I paid him cash
But you are too close and so now I must dash
To the horizon, past the folds of land
And I know you don’t want to understand
But somehow you do
Don’t close that third eye to what’s coming through
It will set you free
There’s God in this, it isn’t just me
Playing pirouette
Your silhouette
Is stark against the rising sun
Wake up,baby, you’re the One
