Shrink me down to a lie Cut me up like a knife An empty plate for my hunger An empty gla** for my thirst A broken smile for your might Swallowed tongues and white eyes Cold gasoline in my throat Framing a black hole A desolating cry A withering mind One day to be remembered One day to be a stranger Scraping for that glimpse of kindness Came to see, where you are Rolled the dice, lost the fight Cut the chain, broke the dam Fix the holes, others grow Said my name, heard the pain Sweeping thru what is left Starved the hope, shot the blank Felt the rain on your face You’re the fool that waits The hand that gives, but never takes
