Nancy

You hold the blazing light, a whole world to unlock, your face an icon, crying by endless night, i watch the broken clock, who will read my rights, you're happy to have me die, waiting for the knock, near water or road sign, a hung out life to dry, heading for the rocks, cigarettes, whisky, doing time, your sweet lullaby, wine bought at crowded docks, a cargo don't ask why, stretched across the line, i need somewhere to belong, you have taken fright, i taste all that's wrong.
