Life-Like Sun

And you're the one

Who scribbled a life-like sun

And you're just what I'd become

And just couldn't wait till the morning

And you'll be

The one who will fall on me

And help me forget to breathe

And leave me like that till the morning

And then you'll come

Like a law-abiding accent

You'll chop away

At everything I've made

And it feels like

Digging at the stone with our hands here

And the smart thing

Would be to drop it all and go home

And the right thing

Is never worth its salt in the first place

And I'd like it

If you find the time to leave me alone

The difference in us

Is that I won't flinch when you cut this off

And it's true

There's scabs on my knuckles too

There's nothing much I can do

They'll scar like the ones before them

And now you've come

To scatter all the ashes

And spread them over

Everything I've made

And it feels like

Digging at the stone with our hands here

And the smart thing

Would be to drop it all and go home

And the right thing

Is never worth its salt in the first place

And I'd like it

If you find the time to leave me alone

The difference in us

Is that I won't flinch when you cut this off
