Deep Talk In The Shallow End

If you were here I'd slap you senseless

Then I'd ask you where you've been

I'd tell you don't you know I worry

Sitting up each night in fear

And then I'd tell you that I'm angry

And I'd say you did me wrong

And that I hate you 'cos you sneak into

My every single song

If you were here you'd see the damage done

And then you'd feel the shame

I'd make you understand my pain

If you were 'round I'd show you wounds and scars

The proof that you were here

And then I'd make you cry like I did

If my point still was not clear

If you were here I'd scream and

Maybe trash the room if I had time

And then one single word would break your spirit

Just the same as you broke mine

If you were here you'd realize what you did

Stay for a million years

I'd make you cry my tears

But you're not here

And I'm not strong

And this whole thing has gone on too long

I need to leave this on my shelf

But instead I say it to myself

If you were here I'd slap you senseless

If only you were here
