• Please, take my hands

    "With your telescope eyes, metal teeth"

    and keep them on your bedside table.

    "Oh, you humor me today"

    With your eyes locked on fingertips,

    "Calling me out to play"

    I shall regret everything,

    "You're just not near enough like me"

    and I mean no harm.

    "Dear Matthew, why can't you see?"

    Things progress and wilt. I tell you,

    "Just get far, far away from me"

    I speak all of the Truth.

    "Please don't make me cry"

    Leave me behind.

    "Go cry, go run away"

    It's only for eternity.
