you with those sable, sad eyes
eyes that challenge my slippery lies
please put away those eyes
i can't bare their gaze on my face
i can't bare the dismay in those eyes
where can i hide from that melting gaze?
where can i hide the shame on my face?
where can i run to that's far enough
to cloak my failure in a bluff?
why do you see inside of me?
why can't you let go of me?
why can't you let me fall
& shatter into nothing at all?
why can't i fade & fall far away?
why can't i crumble in the force of a fierce sway?
i want to go away
i want to grow old & grey
& be nothing that anyone knows
i want to hide all the truth that still shows
won't you let me slip into the never & forever?
can't i embrace a fabled nether?
