O' wicked heart's foolish whim
You drown me in the night again
I asked for this; I saw it so
No light lingers; time to go
In looking back, I cut myself
Down to the basest stones
Hit with the reason I always felt
In the pale hollow of my bones
You cannot love a phantom man
What's past is past as you can see
You cannot hold a devil's heart
What never was can never be.

Oh, I love this! I've been to that place.
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's a dum dum place, for sure. HUA moments. Head up ass.
