all those days i couldn't keep, and every time you couldn't speak, i still loved you, just like a fiend. i held you more, without a means. and yet i placed you in this scene: I'm once a man, and now I'm mean. i'm broken down without the means, I'm trying, being, just to be, and something else i hadn't seen. i loved you, held onto your seams. you pulled apart, and lost your sheen, and still i loved you like a queen.
