You broke me bodily
The heart ain ' t the half of it
And I ' ll never learn to laugh at it
In my good natured way
In fact I ' m laughing less in general
But I learned a lot at my own funeral
And I knew you ' d be the death of me
So I guess that ' s the price I pay
I ' m trying to make new memories
In cities where we fell in love
My head just barely above
The darkest water I ' ve ever known
You had me in that cage
You had me jumpin through those hoops for you
Still I think I ' d stoop for you
Stoop for your eyes alone
From that bomb shell moon in yet another lovely dress
To the deep mahogany sheen of a roach
I am trying to take an appreciative approach
To life in your wake
I focus on the quiet now
And occasionally I ' ll fall asleep somehow
And emptiness has its solace
In that there ' s nothing left to take
