Misery

Don't you forget now

The Sun is burning cold

And our dreams and memories

Are turning into stone

 

Do you remember

The touch of someone's hand

How a stranger would magnetize

And then make you drop dead

 

Did I ever get a chance

To blaze through night with glow so bright

Or am I left now

With heart as burnt-out coal

And mind as useless mush

Without you by my side

 

Did I get a chance

I don't recall by now

Did I lose it all

I don't know, I just don't know

 

Did you take the shot

I hope you did

So smile and run away

Until your soles start to bleed

Before you dimly smolder out

Like me
