he was told the day after

angel, don't let yourself be led

                                     by example

             don't let her slow & tired wasting away

                  latch onto you

         drag you down

                       suck you dry



angel, don't let your grief

           keep me away

            don't let her slow & tired wasting away

                  consume your angry frame

         drag you down

                  suck you dry



angel, don't let that disaffected stare

                               define you

            don't let her slow & tired wasting away

                  flush your emotions

              drag you down

                       suck you dry



              (i may be convinced

                              to be led by

                                         your example

                      let your slow & tired wasting away

                                         latch onto me

                                             drag me down

                                                  suck me dry)
