Coincidence laughed
When I asked of her name
The fates were amused
Though they couldn't explain

The meaning of life
Is nothing but time
She was but a wrinkle
In fabrics of mine

I always want more
Than I ever should
My heart knows me better
Than I ever could

Perhaps there was room
Not yet locked away
Where she could be free
To shade in the gray

But all her fling's horses
And all her string's men
Couldn't put me
Back together again

Another betrayal
Beyond all repair
Infidelity cracks
In my ego affair

Dwarfed in the shadow
Of my universe
She would shrink to the size
Of the things we converse

Tethered and bound
To each other in not
But the fear of without
One another we rot
