population me

this place will tell you lies

with each passing shadow

that goes by

but there's only one or two

at most just three

more likely none

that i still believe

they'll say you're not alone

but don't listen to them

tell that very long

i did then find out

through misery

that the true population's me

i used to look for days around

but no trace of her love

could be found

i'd holler

cry out

beg

and scream

throw myself down

then start to plead

searched for her heart

til mine would bleed

offered it up

but there wasn't any need

too late to care

she's no longer here
