If I had more lives in time
I could you chase in all my prime
Wasting hearts on all thy lovey crimes
With trippings in all your hurty slimes
I could shed a river full of tears
And sit on all the hurts and fear
As your words hold knives and in me tear
And live through all your words of queer and your hurty sneers
I could gauge out six eyes
To keep my sanity and get many dyes
To change my hair and force all my hearts to stand your lies
And will still call your name until my last life dies
But here we are with a life to live
Play with it and none revive’
I only chase you and I have no life
I go into the grave and my yearnings will not survive
Please hold my hands and let us wine
Hold my waist and let us dine
Let us fly to the cloud of nine
And let me know you’re completely mine.
