Betrayed by perpetuity once more
she defends herself still with reason
we hear arguments when all she is saying
is that it hurts

ouch
- NO! YOU'RE WRONG

pretty but mistaken
perhaps i can show her the way
but is she worth it

...she knows it
but what can she do
in this she finds beauty
and sweeter desertion

at least one can rest in peace
knowing he won't regret the right thing
angry at her, he won't despair the world
and perhaps a tortured woman will one day
see salvation in this one man's disability
and perhaps she will be moved by his music too
as you once were

who knows, maybe at the end of the day you're wrong
in which case it wouldn't be such a trick to slash my tyres
pre-emptively

slow me down
please
slow me down please
bring me to a halt
blindfold me and turn me around
ask me to count and have me find you through your mind
across the woods and under the overpass across town in some temple of exertion

and let me find you again and again
no matter what you do, if finding you will resound the world's processes clear as crystal
