[Verse 1]
Oh
This Diet Coke is really good
Though
Come to think of it
It tastes like nothing
Plus, the idea of chocolate
Or an acquaintance of chocolate
Speaking fondly of certain times
Eating chocolate and spoken of nothing
[Verse 2]
Oh
Nothing, remembering the field in which
You once ate the most wondrous sandwich
Of ham and rustic chamber cheese
Yet still wished for a piece of chocolate
For the long walk back through the corn
Then the darkening forest
To the disappointing village
To the super creepy bed and breakfast
With secret despair
I returned to the city
[Verse 3]
Something seemed to be waiting for me
Maybe the chosen [?]
They would, even were it nothing better
Than a wandering cloud
Which, of course, for me and everyone
Sounds amazing
[Verse 4]
Oh, laugh alone
Is my own desire
Sometimes to feel
Sometimes to be at least a little more
Than intermittently at ease with being loved
[Verse 5]
I'm never at ease
Not without words
I can't read or walk
And look at the brightly colored houses
Filled with lives
Not with night
When I lay on my back and listen
[Verse 6]
Not with the hallway
Definitely not with baseball
Definitely not with time
[Verse 7]
Poor cold witch
Son of a vicar
And a lake
They could not find the energy
No present joy or cheerful confidence
Just love of friends
And the wind's taking his air away
[Verse 8]
Come to the edge
The edge, backwards softly
Take this cup full of darkness
And stay as long as you want
And take me a little longer
