XYZ Oh I know you're on your way I have no words to say but I'll be the gravity hangin' on the edge of your 1,2,3... XYZ, ex-wives and sea rolling on waves of entropy ABC, the day she'll see me for who I am will be the day this dam un-breaks, this heart un-aches, catching all winter's snowflakes on the tip of my tongue oh girl I am deaf and dumb and done XYZ, wrecks lives you see burning pages of my bad poetry 123, words I have given freely stolen from XO but you'd never know would you girl, this hell is my world diving deep into me to find the pearl but all that remains is hurt oh I'm bereft, bereaved, but oh so alert... To the things I have dreamed in postcards and cut-out magazines when you need someone beside you, you're bound to be lonely and blue you're watching me, I'm watching you I'm drowning in my self-made seas of beautiful pity, XYZ XYZ, sex, lies and dreams stabbing my Fender into the TV screen OCD, the day she'll see me as I should be first the seas will all dry up this pale skin left pure and uncut, catching in a paper cup all the leaves of October oh I am setting this pen down and turning the page over, baby I'm done Yeah I know you've gone to stay I haven't the words to say but I'll be the gravity that's draggin' on your XYZ, skimmin' on the seas of your sad heart spinning, oh such a pity, XYZ.
