Burial Bleak

Easily I shall fail thee
No matter how hard I try, and I’ve tried
You’ve seen how hard I can try
And greedily at a burial bleak
I’m thinking maybe dying’s just not for me
You’ll see how hard I can cling to my life

I’m glad that we cut our losses
It’s a lottery win now we’re back up on the shelves
There’s no one anothers
No somebody else’s pelvis that I want to crush
Breathe easily, fall back asleep
Alone and contentedly clutching a good read
To the chest, that’s a welcome retreat
From worrying oneself to death

I shall fail thee, no matter how hard I try
And I’ve tried
You’ll see how hard I can try
Greedily at a burial bleak
I’m thinking maybe dying’s not for me
You’ll see how hard I can cling to my life

Other than with myself
I’ve felt more alone with you
Than with anyone else
Than with anyone else.
