Stay
words & music by Brian E. Langston
(original version recorded by Babelfish42)
the sky's a maze of stars the distant moon's a bone white fire I'm sinking through this air tonight sinking like a stone in water thinking of your cold dark smile of your cold bare shoulders of your cold denial of my lips cold against your cold against your jaded smile parallel lines cross across the horizon where every point is distant from the center I can't even think to finish this rhyme sinking like a stone in water thinking of your cold dark smile of your cold bare shoulders of your cold denial of my lips cold against your cold against your jaded smile cold cold December dark cross my eyes and cut my heart I'm vanishing, I'm vanishing I'm vanishing in the distance cold cold December dark cross my eyes and cut my heart I'm sinking, I'm sinking won't you throw me a line even as you close your eyes won't you whisper something please even as you close your eyes won't you whisper something please even as you close your eyes won't you whisper something please even as you close your eyes can't you see I'm sinking cold cold December dark cross my eyes and cut my heart I'm vanishing, I'm vanishing I'm vanishing in the distance cold cold December dark cross my eyes and cut my heart I'm sinking, I'm sinking won't you throw me a line
