In desperate times your indifference will slowly cripple you Like cholera. Decimate and shiver til you're grey I wanna lie in your bed and 'X' out the days Until your waves crash Until your frame snaps You'll say "It's all okay; I want you to cave in with me" Miles away and in between It's all the same, Subtle dying. You lie awake, forget to breathe It's all the same, constant fighting. Infect us with a hope you can't deprive In this worldwide quarantine In this homeless shelter we struck up a slow dance. A cold empty cup in the shiver of your hand Drags along a wired fence I laid in your bed today, rusting away. I felt the same. The subtle dying.
