real tears for an almost anorexic

written in mid 2012

they have no right to take you

to break you, to make you fall

you were beauty, i was confidence,

together we could do anything

i wish i could help you,

to save you, to kill you,

i'd be willing

right now all i know is i love you,

there's not much more to say

the bacon in the kitchen

the chicken in the den

what's it gonna take

the tires in the backyard

let's walk to the store

to buy some ice cream

and then to the playground

to sit on the stones

and try to figure life out

you'd always talk to me

and it made me feel good

in a terrible time

like maybe i was the friend

you favoured

times are terrible now, too

and if you only knew

if i were 2 months crazier,

i'd rip every hair out of my head

if i could only bring you back
