Written by Joe Summers
I used to be able to see the green on other side of it all
Living under a darkened star
I used to be able to cut a mile in a minute
But now my dog legs are broke down and bent.
Falling green; it cuts an aging shape around me
Dreams of youth, of fire and will
They’ve grown dense and wasteful
Because they don’t look to you.
I used to move like a half moon
Thin and quick to the cut
Now I sit fat and brazen in the rush
Drunken on the nearness to you.
Love lives like a broken bone
You must break it to feel it
Well now you’ve broken it
And now I feel it
