Still

As a crust of bread

Is incomplete without the bread

I am incomplete without you

So far away you feel, you are

I lay awake as still as stone

As still as death, upon an icy riverbed

The breadcrust longs for more

More meat upon its bones

To tide him through the cold of the month

Time flies like a frisbee, like a squirrel

Swaying me to sleep, until you return

Swaying grows still, as still as the death within its basket

As still as our eyes move

As they wander for eachother, two thousand miles away

Oh, tireswing, hold me in your rubber arms

Tire swing in the tree, hold me through the rotten time

As it sways through my pain, as it sways through the days
