The year I took myself to task Was the year that I thought to ask You if you would be my friend And the year of twenty one will never end But it’s filled with ennui Coz I lost what I gave for free And all the time you were with her I didn’t know that it stir As you wake up to believe More than wiping your eyes with your sleeve And I got committed to a mental equation Adding up how I might hate him But I can’t make it last or real As they try to make me not feel Anything at all, a deadening tome I thought you stood alone But there was wind in your hair I didn’t realise she was your air As I breathed in all I could take Til I’m the diamond you forsake Hidden in the rough and tumble But my facade starts to crumble As I let the truth sneak in Would I settle for just part of him?
