the beginning was calm you were alone departed some time ago you shook the puzzle a bit and the pieces felt out of place but you didn't complain about picking them up
you said you were wired differently that you can't fall out of love even when the war came and we sat outside chinatown you told me you didn't care about the water of the womb
you wanted to pack up and go somewhere where the pansies danced and the girls are tough
where this big ol' house at the end of the road is your home you say you knew
your life was planned since day one but for some reason you are not there
