Oslow

Oslow

You said you were alone

But how slow I was on the uptake

I've known

Every word you wrote

But no blame can lie on your doorstep

Inside

It's hollow

Please mind your head

Or risk a crick in your neck

Or your pearly straight back

A relic of an ancient time

That others are so quick to forget

I'm bitterly

Fighting on a silent front

But killing everything and

Everyone I know

Is waiting at the door

To give me time and space

Just leave it on the mat

I've seen your fishbowl faces

Clogging up the hall

It's all too much

My eyes are rolling back

Inside

Get settled

I've made your bed

Or how it looked in my head

I wasn't there much

But nows a time for recompense

Let's reconcile and

Keep in touch

Say something

A word would mean the world over

And I could face the crowds and

Everyone I know

Is waiting at the door

To give me time and space

Just leave it on the mat

I've seen your fishbowl faces

Clogging up the hall

It's all too much

My eyes are rolling back

Oslow

You said you were alone

But how slow I was on the uptake

I've known

Every word you wrote

But no blame can lie on your doorstep

Oslow

You said you were alone

But how slow I was on the uptake

I've known

Every word you wrote

So no blame can lie on your doorstep
