Pas Toi
Tal
Not You
Carve the bark
'Til it bleeds
Nail the doors
Lock myself in
Live the dreams
Staying up too late
Pray to shadows
And walk so much
I keep telling myself
That it takes time
I keep writing
In black on white
No matter what I do
Wherever I am
Nothing erases you
I think of you
Days go by
Empty furrows
In reason
But without love
My chance passes
The winds turn
Only absence remains
Obstinately
I keep telling myself
That it’s just how it is
That without aging
You don’t forget
No matter what I do
Wherever I am
Nothing erases you
I think of you
No matter what I learn
I don’t know why
I bleed
And you don’t
There’s no hate
There are no kings
No god or chains
That we fight
But what do we need?
What power?
What weapon breaks
Indifference?
Oh, it’s not fair
It’s poorly written
Like an insult
More than disdain
No matter what I do
Wherever I am
Nothing erases you
I think of you
No matter what I learn
I don’t know why
I bleed
And you don’t
And you don’t
Not you
