And I keep going forward
Tearing your tentacles out of me
And healing the wounds
Forgetting you
You're nothing but shadows
Hungry, weak, frail and thin
With hungry eyes
And black teeth
And I won't even look back
I'm forgetting you
Every day you get
Farther away
And disappear around my bend
Up the hill
Men will no longer be the measure
Of my time
And my life
I will lead myself
Holding on to the thread
With God at the other end
And an angel will place it in my hand
When I accidentally let go
All that is unnecessary and heavy
Dirty and rotten
It'll fall away from me
Rolls down somewhere
Fades and gathers dust
And every day every day
My field of possibilities branches out
And I'll choose my own turns
The sadness has become deeper
And so it became more like joy
I've come to love myself and everything that's happened to me
Everything I've experienced and felt
And I'm going to count my memories tenderly
I'll stuff them in all my
My pockets
And I'll go on my way
I poured clear water in my eyes
So I can see clearly
I'll put myself to sleep
And watch me sleep
