Me—I fell inside her fortress walls,
My heart smitten in those hallowed halls.
And as my eyes mist, my brain numb,
(She says): now, it’s time for me to go.
We fought wars with words raged silently,
She begged won’t you just go quietly.
And as my heart breaks, my breath short,
(She says): Why, the truth is what I know.
She stood silent dripping sympathy,
No, she couldn’t affect some empathy.
And as the knife twists, my back hurts,
(She says): that’s— about how deep it goes.
Why, she won’t tell me (why)
She says, that’s something
Words and Music by Great Orphan Sea.
