you left me
and I didn't look back
your precious pains
clutched tightly in your hands

I love you a little less
than I did yesterday
for your abandonment
when I walked away

and in all the places and in all the times
from all the stories and from all the rhymes
when all my verbal pixels are penned
am I your beginning or am I your end?

so where are you going?
I'm headed this way
but don't turn around
when I want you to stay

there's nothing I can do or say
to make you want .. to stay
no there's nothing I can do or say
to change that part
of my dead and bloated heart

wash your hands
get out while you please
because you scare
the living shit out of me

and
I want you to know
if you don't surrender
and become all I need
I might forget to remember

in all the places and in all the times
from all the stories and from all the rhymes
when all my verbal pixels are penned
am I your beginning or am I your end?

dance marionette
to the piper's rune
and when you walk away
I'll whistle the tune

but
I want you to know
if you came back along
I'd love you some more
just because it was wrong

and
I love you a little less
than I did yesterday
for your abandonment
when I walked away

and in all the places and in all the times
from all the stories and from all the rhymes
when all my verbal pixels are penned
am I your beginning or am I your end?
