Don’t take this personally
I’m leaving with this machine today  
I’m really going to miss your voice
It really got through to me
My heart’s in a box on your balcony
I’m going to miss your sharp eyes
They saw right through me
I left my axe on the moon tonight
If I get too tall, please come cut me down
And I think my chest moves again

I was going to come talk to you tonight
I was going to come and touch your hair
You said it was wet with blood
I’m sorry if that was my doing; I can’t remember
I smiled today and I’m sure that you’d be proud

This machine is taking me everywhere we said we’d go
But now I’ve hit this green and can’t seem to push
I’m going to miss the way you smell, so much
But you’re stronger than your mother gives you credit for

Told me to forget you
But I won’t even try
You’ve cut yourself on my memory
I left some tears on the couch and I’m sure you’ll be proud
You’re so…and now I’ve got to leave this massacre behind
You’re so much better than I gave you credit for
I shouldn’t be saying this, but please don’t take it personally
This is just the blood soaking into the carpet
This is just me, being me…

Don't cry for me or for this.  One day I might be okay, but she hurts...thanks for the response.

You've done it again. Taken the thoughts right out of my head and put them to words. As always, intriguing, real, and amazing.

Mad-Hatter....
Don't I know you?
I know that I know the words...the spews you form...
and as always....they are grand.
