Bodies n' the ground.
I tried to take you higher.
Do you sense the irony
in what has come to be?
Living on your shelf.
Can you feel my ire?
Cast myself in iron,
easily I'm falling. Free.
Past and distant stones
held onto with no reason.
Accountabili-teasin' me,
and weighing you down.
One more left to throw.
I set myself on fire,
so you can see me shining.
Oh, indeedy, here I go.
And even you'll lay low,
and let me let you go,
and take the breaks as
we couldn't make it.
And when you feel that sting,
that's all I used to bring
no longer showing.
It's frustrating.
It's irritating.
Exasperating.
It's here and it's gone.
It goes on and on.
And when it's time for Moore,
the always-open door
you sauntered in
now requires knocking.
So leave gifts at the gate.
You'll never have to wait
too long for response.
You're rose and thorn, and
I am the stem.
We were all along.
