Hopeless

Leave me, I beg you

I can’t stand this pain

You are low hanging fruit

Just there, but not quite ready

Everyone’s but never mine

A light of love, a will-o-the-wisp

Never seriously anything at all

One day you will be

But it won’t be with me

I’m not worthy of attention

I lack more then I possess

So one day they’ll come to take me

Many loving fans, I guess

Not really, nobody cares

I’ve been told that often enough

And if you hear it often enough

You begin to believe it

Maybe I worship the ground that you walk on

Because the one I walk on is tainted

Black as sin and just as gritty

You walk on air and you know it

I falling through cracks in the pavements

Wrecked and hopeless am I

Hiatus

Who will be here when we break?

To pick the pieces up?

Cracks begin to show already love

Fading in the sun

It’s never peaceful in the wind and rain

Time is spent waiting

For the storm to end

But it’s only a pause

Hiatus

Then a frantic run to shelter

What happens when that shelter

Is no longer there?

Will we race downstream in the flood?

Will we whip wildly in the wind?

All we can do is take cover

The best we can until

The storm is over

Plant our feet in solid ground

Comfort each other

Together

Survive the deluge
