Cabinet

Thought like ink

Love runs out

So I kept it up on a shelf

And I will polish it, finger it

But never let it breathe by itself

Whatever happens next

When nothing's left

I'd just rather not see

You've been slicing like a knife

Like Eve with her bite

But I don't think you've wounded me

We don't fall into love

It slips from the cabinets and falls into us

I stand apart from your body in the dark

But our gazes link like a bridge

And I don' t think that I'm weak

Though my lips open to speak

That I'd trade my soul for a kiss

I turn away to cry but even when I lie

There's some things words cannot hide

And my aim's never been good

But my arrow to the moon

Is so close it scrapes the sides

We don't fall into love

It slips from the cabinets and falls into us

Now love's tangled up

Like a sitting duck

I don't have to search

You're all my answers

We don't fall into love

It slips from the cabinets and falls into us
