Chapter by chapter
You were tearing my book
And my little brain thought that
You were arranging the pages into perfect order
Chapter by chapter
You were tearing my book
And my little brain thought that
You were arranging the pages into perfect order

I came running at your slightest call
But when I needed you, you were AWOL
I forfeited sleep to make sure you were okay
But you won’t make time for me on any day
We talked only when you wanted
But when I did you literally ignored me
I kept wondering if maybe you just got bored
Pushing me away because you know I’d reappear
But tomorrow when you come I just won’t be here
Because I realised that I can’t fully love you
When you don’t even love yourself

A man of words and not of deeds
Is like a garden full of weeds
And when the weeds begin to crawl
It’s like a bird upon the wall
And when the bird away does fly
It’s like an eagle up in the sky
And when the sky begins to roar
It’s like a lion right at the door
And when the door begins to crack
It’s like a stick across your back
And when your back begins to smart
It’s like a knife inside your heart
And when your heart begins to bleed
You are dead & dead & dead indeed
