What’s right
And what’s wrong?
Don’t you hold me too lightly
To words as I’ve rounded them off
To the nearest of ten
For I gathered your body
In envious capture
In envious thought
Oh forgive me, oh gods
Or forgive me in fortune
Forgive me in feeling it out for myself
As I ought to have feelings for something
As great as thou art
Some great white rose
Of youth, your pleasure
Gives of my own heart
Generous portions, wisely
Breaks of my own heart
I felt the arm’s length
While I’ve gone on my own way
Conserve me, strange waters
Come and obey me, strange waters
Have it your own way
So if you won’t hold me
I have no objections
So if you won’t please me
I make no commands
So if you don’t trust me
It’s best if I drown
