where the time went

you could open with your failings

make them understand

show the love notes

make them picture with their eyes closed

make them wonder where the time goes

keep your distance south of river

draw a line

they are not together

make it screech

stop

wait

turn red

make me wonder where the time went

you will not save me a stand-off

be not a stranger and land here

i will leave this empty-handed

feeling selfish

common as shit

leave me question where your heart lends

how you open-wounded withstand

lead me into some false pretence

i will ruin you in a second

leave it up to interpretation

open-ended invitation

and your wedding

i could crash it

whisper in your ear god
