i don't want to care
unfortunately, i do
you're still there
i love you, too.
stop saying that
stop calling me pet names
stop saying that
you're the one to blame
stop saying that
stop talking

she kept talking about larry david
it was destiny for me to give in

in this hall of women
stripping to get money
to pay their groceries
to eat i found love

i'm digging this sound
deep beneath the ground
asleep with the hounds
i'll keep making my rounds

i'm afraid of confrontation
so i'll save it some place vacant
to be stagnant. decapitated.

listen to the pilot
my brain started a riot
violent and vibrant
colliding with the quiet
mind beside me, hiding
lying on the tile
rivalry inside a missile silo
single file through the aisles
all the while you sit and smile
you did it

slave
to the skinny white
staying by the wall
all night
