kind of a lifeline
steady but out of time
sinister and sincere
what they made of me
as you wander through the streets
sarcasm it beats
every second of a lonely night
with a momentary lapse
the keyholder snaps
taking everything but their lives
i know it's been there
but now i don't care
i know it's serious
shady experiment
not a predicament
i know it's bilious
a streetlight glows
dreaming of romeos
don't mind the analogies
accept my apologies
as you wander through the streets
sarcasm it beats
every second of a lonely night
with a momentary lapse
your love seems inapt
you don't need it in your life
