there you were day after day six feet, twenty feet...two feet away right in my pocket singing me a song making my heart race all day long
and we talked it out and we talked it down but your eyes were not listening and my ears were looking around for another song to sing
but it was you each time it was you
and the answer to each moment must be yes and the question "can you live with it" becomes the test and you weigh it against that aching in your chest and the secretly relentless emptiness
and we talked it out and we talked it down but your eyes are not listening meanwhile my ears were looking around for another song to sing
and it is you each time it is you it is you
so my heart finally broke it was so long bent and it broke in three places when it finally went all it ever wanted was to say what it meant so it suffered your punishment
now it lives in a shack outside of town and only the wolves are out there listening and in their dreams they chase her down their moonlit eyes are glistening
and it is you each time it is you it is you it is you it is you
