I was supposed to marry you Supposed to help you Supposed to aid you, cure you, Carry you Instead I watch you from afar Watch you through computer-screen sickness Watch you through pussy-madness Watch you through whiskey-gladness Watch you through oblivion's sadness And while you falter in life but not me I mend your clothes I sell your merch I feed your slaves I feel your worth All while you falter in life but not me The years pass by Like slivering scales And I'm still in your palm Tiny ***** limp with slavery's tails It's only my reflection I fear A reflection I fear when you're in the room God-speed to all the times you are and were God-speed to all those nickel-days A lifetime of being invisible You hold what I crave Mirror image You falter in life but not me
