about

You took something from me, lover
On the chance we'd never speak
Still I'd yield to every breath, should you give one up for me

In the autumn I walk through a whispering hollow
Haunted woods and frozen shallows
with a missing tongue the muse the mute
cannot sing these lines I've lyred for you

Each time I hang my eyes I find the knives have left me redefined
And I've been drowning in the breath of love and loneliness
You look something like my troubles tangled up in garter strings
With your fading waist and your painted face
I think you thought of everything

I looked forever, but you were never what I'd find
I know you loved me for all the things that it took to make you mine

Dita, Evita, you know I'll never leave you
Miss minion don't want on those thoughts of him
Sweets to the sweet miss who desserts us yet
You say you wish you were with me
in your every baited breath
