i look at the sky and the water i think
thank god the fire didn't burn this because
you said it was worse without me and i
only felt it was worse without
you

but my toes tingle asleep(they fall
into) without the beads of sand sweet tears
all down(they fall into) a heap in my
lap

and you sitting there me gone
i hope you forget me so i don't(can't)
(don't have the chance to) hurt
you disappoint you lack you so i
get up from the heap in my lap i
walk
