Not Alone - Matisse

Stay awake sleepyhead

Is there love in this bed?

All the thoughts left unheard

I am shaking

Rise up living dead

In the half our small love we tear down

Two hearts empty and cold

Now we stare at the wall

While these devils below

Are smiling

Is this all that I get from a beautiful head?

You are passing out

Every breath that you take

I am counting down

All the feelings we fake

They’re wearing out

And we’ll end on our own

You’re not alone — This time you’re here next to me

You’re not alone — in crime partner with me

You’re not alone — be wise praying won’t set you free

You’re not alone — this time quiet symphony

Like a skin that you shed

And a flower that’s dead

Every minute with you

Seems worthless

And the stains on my shirt

Like a feeling that we no longer share

Two souls digging a hole

For a glimmer of hope

When the love in our eyes is dying

Is this all that I get from a beautiful head?

You are passing out
