Now The World

Summer, I painted A scene That lit the stars for me Said, "I can erase it For you, dear" That summer created Those words That came to life in three They were denied by you Summer, I laid down Below the glitter-adorned night And silently sparkled My own way Summer, I laid down By you, and shared my frail light You gave the dark to me (You gave the dark to me) I looked inside (I) To find (wanted) The one I sent away (this excoriation) I nearly froze When I stepped inside (I) To find (thrive on) The flowers turned to gray (this self-mutilation) I closed my eyes And kissed them one last time Oh Summer, a morning So pale Alone when they found me As I remained sleeping I heard them say "This summer created A boy Of abject misery" He was designed by you (He was designed by you) I looked inside (I) To find (wanted) The one I sent away (this excoriation) I nearly froze When I stepped inside (I) To find (thrive on) The flowers turned to gray (this self-mutilation) I closed my eyes And kissed them So like a lost child I will hide (Now the world) And like a lost lie I will find (Now the world) Find a way to return to the ones who made me Cover your eyes and we'll die together Will you cry for me? Will you cry for me? Or will you die with me? Or will you cry for me? Or will you cry for me? Or will you die with me? Will you cry for me? (I've been a lonely one) Will you cry for me? (I've had this whole world) Or will you die with me? (Drained from me) Will you cry for me? (Am I the only one?) Will you cry for me? (I've had this world) Or will you die with me? (Drained from me) Drained from me Summer, I painted A scene That lit the stars for me Said "I can erase it For you, dear"
