Clearing Out The Weeds

I cleared the weeds
Off of her home
I tore the seams
Of all of your clothes
I stole the seeds
Out of her bowl
I broke the mattress springs
Just like chicken bones
There was a time I walked freely in the night
And I kissed you in alleys and bars
Yeah, I felt every sting of desire
But it’s gone
I killed the bees
With the rusty garden hose
Fell to my knees
Like I was before a throne
I can’t see anything
Inside the box
You left with Touya’s things
Just some of your hair, and pieces of string
Tied to a shard of glass
But I’ll take it with me
Yeah, I’ll take it
There was a time I walked freely in the night
And I kissed you in alleys and bars
Yeah, I felt every sting of desire
But it’s gone
I suck down a drink
And sink into that hole
Waiting for the dream
To hit me like a stone
Where I sprout wings
And hover all alone
