Copernicus

close the doors
if you want to see her breathing again
blur the days
sleeping is just not an option
how come every time i walk you crawl
when you cut out all the letters
that make up this note
i won’t give up
’til i find what happened to you

the solution inhaled from
the rag i hold
holds a maximum vacancy
as i held you in crippled bandages
don’t you stay up and wait for me

left dangling in the wind

you’re not there
i poke needles
in the neck of a doll
she pokes back
asking why can’t
i just let her out
how come every time i walk you crawl
when you cut out all the letters
that make up this note
i won’t give up
’til i find what happened to you

the solution inhaled from
the rag i hold
holds a maximum vacancy
as i hold you in crippled bandages
don’t you stay up and wait for me

left dangling in the wind

don’t let the days escape
what i did brings more of them
and we’ll be waiting just for them
over my dead body

over the search they lead
and they won’t find them anymore

now that i collect
from cells that we once shared
with multi-headed union
of multiple selves

the solution inhaled from
the rag i hold
holds a maximum vacancy
as i held you in crippled bandages
don’t you stay up and wait for me

left dangling in the wind
