I sit here every god damn night
'till break of light
Carving on apples with a knife
Drinking wine out of a silver plated glass
Trying to write
You
Something
That will make you write me back!

My fingers are bleeding ink
My eyes are desperate for a fight
Just write and be done with this
I tell you,
Just spare those few effortless words
And I'll sleep through a night....

I breathe through twenty cigarettes a letter
I have chained my-self to pen and page
Be a man, and send me your reply
Be a man, and love me back again.

I have been different lately
My smile has changed a little
And so have my dreams
It's funny
Changing
From one person
To another,
Though still loving the same man.

I have taken time for granted
And time has done the same with me
So here I stop
And here I step
Up to take, to grab
Any piece that I can reach.
Any of you that you'll put out,
Even if it's just a few thin words
On a late reply.
