Switchblade

Oh, your absence resounds like a siren,

But my presence brings no more than silence

For the times I’ve behaved like a switchblade,

For the blame when I should have just forgave…

Where do you go

When those darker wild eyes show?

If I lead you straight up to

The loneliest landscape you knew,

Boy, would you care

If you lost me there?

I was blessed with your good intention,

But your kindness gets no reflection.

All the words you hear without listening,

Oh, you waste them all on the missing.

Where do you go

When those darker wild eyes show?

If I lead you straight up to

The loneliest landscape you knew,

Boy, would you care

If you lost me there?

If you lost me there…

If you lost me there…

Where do you go

When those darker wild eyes show?

If I lead you straight up to

The loneliest landscape you knew,

Boy, would you care

If you lost me there?
