My life has more twists than Lombard Street
More issues than Time magazine...

Reach out and take someone's hand
Take them with you on the walk of life...

Comfortably numb
Heartache and pain...

Slit my throat with a jagged blade...
Slash my chest and split my ribs with your axe...

Listen! What do you hear?
Sirens, cars, disenchanted voices...

Dreams of lust and love fill your head
Broken by the shrill cell phone ring...

Pulling into the drive
Red light on the porch...

Lavender negligee hanging on your skin
Barely covering the beating of your heart...

My mood is black like the sky
Tears well up in my eyes...

Like a freight train it hits me at dawn
Your body curled up next to mine...

Haunting is your voice
Melody of your love in my ear...

Time passes on as the seasons ever change
Our love growing like the flowers and trees...
