1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 1...

Hurting to feel for anything else
Trying so hard not to settle for me
Desperately searching your arm for a pulse
Bleeding it dry without letting it be

If I'm your eighth day out of reach
How I'd love to learn to teach
How now I long for your song
To remove all the rights from wrong

For too many days
I was lost in your haze
Totally amazed
But it was just a phase

It seemed so true
And passionate
I guess I knew
You'd ration it

But then again
What did I know?
Nothing when
That's all you'd show

Does my lack of a clue
Make you feel good?
Would not like to pursue
Even if I still could

But I can't and I won't
Waste what I do
I shant so I don't
Chase after you

I want to open up your closed latch
But it's locked and you don't care
I'll keep hopin' that we're a match
So we talk and get nowhere

Faster than we would if I held time...
Still... waiting... latent...
Ask you if you would if I was dying...
Still... waiting... patient
