I hope, some day, all she'll be is second thoughts
A grey mountain dying on the pomegranate sky With beauty all around, but not within your narrowed eye Brandy-colored bruises where your stony thighs were cupped The Bitch, a bitch, and finally, some bitch that messed you up And, it's hardly a surprise that she's the one you wrangled up Cos you never angled up
I hope, some day, all you'll be is weightless spores
I'll taste you here and there, but you'll never test my knees Though, I'll always toil over how you blindly cut the keys When you hadn't the schematics, and I didn't show you how Do you realize that you've made it so no one can enter, now? So, who is there to blame for the way that I've been swindled? And, I've been kindled
I hope, some day, all I'll be is everything
Not a florid lip print on an ever-empty can Not the faded smell of paper money in your hand Not the harried hubcap, still, spinning, like a top You never had the time to see me dwindle down and stop And, it's not worth going back the way you came with ruffled brow It's not worth a thing, now
I hope you're happy, I hope you're happy with your glass half empty Even though you got your share
