    Sold Out

lyrics

I had not longed for you in days,
Before this high noon struck me
I had not burned for your watery ways,
Oh not that full-lipped lusting
It was a sorry gilded cage
That bound our hearts together
Now I just want to push the weight
Of you away forever
But here I sit
On this high hill
Wanting for you still
Only you
Lonely you
Love is just a faded dream
That I cannot remember
What once was always, on its knees
Screaming “never, never”
But here I sit
On this high hill
Wanting for you still
Only you
Lonely you
As I exorcise our love’s demise
And think my last thoughts of you in blue
I recall the sand in the palm of your hand
Dust to dust, away with you
