What I do is never enough.
Not even almost.
The glass I fill for him, he will knock over.
My hands are on these cold bars in front of me,
And I cannot escape.
Every turn, every step;
The fault is mine, and mine alone.
Like a bolt drilled into brain I can't dig out with shaking fingers.
I have become bitter again, and I have become resentful.
The organs in my body fill with tar, I am ready to spill.
So is he.
What am I to do with myself, if I hate the body I'm in?
What am I to do with myself, if I can't make someone understand?
What am I to do with myself, if I made the mistake first?
I will let him.
I will let him do it.
I will let him do what he wants; it's what he needs.
And I will lay there.
I will wrap my arms around him,
And I will lay there like the dead woman I am.
