Eileen

When I say 'screw you', to make my troubles light, there's plenty more to do, all of us die intestate, however much we lie, throwing venom at our mates, come to think it through, your eyes betray terrible signs, a frightened fear of truth, fire burns in the grate, don't tell me how to cry, anchors weigh your sea case, no one is immune, only life makes us wise, I'm no longer duped, wouldn't it be great, to feel a love inside, instead of all this rage, your ship's beyond the dunes, waiting on the tide, better get moving, I'm done with trying.
