slow me down

the dull and aching simple theme--
it hurts so bad i cannot see,
the luminescent gray white flesh,
it only mattered once it broke,

slow me           down,
slow me                down,
slow  me  down  me  downward
spirals in the dark,

i wish i had someone along
to hold my head,   to feel my heart
to tell the blinking lights apart,

i need you,
i need you,         to go away,

to press the frozen bag into my eyes,
and ice it has its sleight of hand--
the way it makes me think its time,

just slow me down,
just slow me down,
just go away,

the fear it flies around my head,
and jitters rhythms through my neck,
i squeeze my fingers,   lift the split,

it never leaves        me,
dont leave me,
just go away
