I want you to see You who claim to love me You who claim to save me From that which I can't see Ahead, but I know in my bones I can't let bygones be bygones Right now - I've worked a week for two Or three, and I'm tired, and I have had too Four weeks locked up through no fault of my own And I am wearing close to the bone And I'm dying on my own I am not-crying on my own I can't say I'm alone When I'm out of the zone Where the world is a stranger And my sun turned from me in danger As if I would **** him with my pallor Because I asked for his light, in squalor Or maybe just too young And realising how much is wrong And how much has been wrung And how I have a limit to being strong And how I loved too much That I'm now sick of the loving, friendly, familial touch - I did not realise how much I suffered Until today's sweet sunny plans, by me, were scuppered.
