And i tried to tell you as I kissed your hard, dry lips
All the things I dreamed about I touched your bone white hips.
far away our parents slept in as we watched our fire burn
they dreamed of nothing
and got nothing in return.
And the water slipped down slowly,
past our bodies in the reeds
pulling plastic wrap and razors
on its current through the reeds
and I woke up one cold morning
felt an absence at my back
and I searched and stared but only the river stared back
and I searched and stared but only the river stared back.
