in between "here" and "then" you
pushed the wrong button
and set the world atilt
give me ready-made sadness, don't
take the edge away, leave just
a few pieces of scattered romance
my hands cannot hold
my heart cannot fix
my fear cannot flatter
(if I'm as charming as I pretend to be)
rain is one thing
turning me inside out, by mistake, is another
in between "here" and "then" what's set in motion:
take me apart slowly if you please, while
I go on ruining all these songs
