Facile Simplicity

At last you wake up. The smell of yesterday's wine is in the room. Dress, fix your make-up. You walked out smiling too, don't even care explaining why we're so far beyond the line.

Was I heavy? Was I a load to you? No reasons given. Point out my failures, I thought I trusted you, don't even try explaining why we're so far beyond the line.

You always lead us round in circles, testing us, admit that you were wrong searching the maze of my mind. You played us out against each other, looking back, I trusted you for real, But now I know better.

Dammed up my feelings, with more fragility for every day. A glimpse of your back, the last I saw of you. Don't even try explaining why we're so far beyond the line.

Swallow your feelings. Swallow your heart. Swallow your heart, now.
