the songs u play for me to take heed...
they speak to four ears not two
almost pointless to speak--
if the change is a visual
it will be from four lines not two.
I'm not the only one lacking baby,
crawl inside your own skin!
better yet, slide into mine,
breathe from my lungs,
feel with MY soul
kiss you with every ounce of more than I have to give
look at you with MY eyes,
and conquer every stare with the patience of a soldier
knowing your embrace won't be returned
feel YOUR rejections
hear the "not right now baby"s
soak in the never-ending requests with no intention of reciprocating favors
experience the constant dismissals of sweet, simple desires
and try to warm the chill when you turn away
oh...one last thing...take this sleeve and wipe my eyes-every time you leave
me standing empty and outside of everything real to you
understand I will be waiting and it will never cease...but in the meantime, baby, FEEL what I feel when you leave this one-way
