Want

If you really want it bad
if you really need it so
Tell my why you want it,
or you’ve got to leave, just go.

You have to leave
because if you don’t your
heart will grieve,
just remember me as I sit
here like a tree.

I want to mesh with the leaves
blend with the trees
disappear into the wind
let this all begin again

But you can’t take it back
and you can’t make it right.
I don’t care how cold or dark
is the night, you better leave
right now and if there are no
cabs then you can walk all
the way home, that’s too bad.

Because you threw it down the stairs,
everything we had.
You didn’t mind breathing in
everything that’s bad.

Those thoughts you can keep,
just not me, but you can keep
the memories, I will give you that.
