Something You Can Take

Do you have anything that belongs to anyone?

Surfing coattails through failures

You can’t face without a gun

I watch the curtains dim then

I hear the radiators start to hum

Keeping up signs of life but lacking simply in the air of someone having fun

Is anybody mad at you, is anyone awake?

Is there something you can take?

Trapped in such a state

Your mouth is taped

Is there something you can take?

I loved your garden but I understood it when you raked it through

In the driveway, heard the shattering of records that she gave to you

You are a philistine, you said you don’t listen the words when she sings

But you must accept in kind the reciprocal of the love that you are grieving

Is anybody mad at you, is anyone awake?

Is there something you can take?

Trapped in such a state

Cry me a lake

Is there something you can take?
