Paint the Walls Gone

A Poem by g d chalupsky

Lyrics for a song

"


     How did you break me?
          I thought I was so strong
 
     How did you take me, only for a moment
          make that moment feel so long?

     Steal the hands from the clock    
          hanging on my wall

     Pick your time, leave me timeless
          blame me for it all

     I try to remember, though
          you pushed me, I didn't fall


                                    
     When you made slow love with me,
            it slowed the hands of time.
 
     But when I last came for you,
          there were no hands to find.

     left me just an empty face,
          trapped by these white walls, 

     Took your time, left me timeless,
          blamed me for it all

     I try to remember, though
          you pushed me, I didn't fall



     You may have been broken by
          one twice as cruel as you
          
     I made it far too easy, though
          for you to break me, too

     To leave me blank and empty
          trapped by these white walls

     Took your time, left me timeless
          here alone too long

     All I want to do now is
          paint these white walls gone
