In This Dark
Julie Elaine Claytor
Your hand is perfume-y and white
Touching my face and I am teary eyed
I can still see the shame
My arms are shaking my fingers are numb
I can barely coordinate myself
Use your hand for me
Every time things go so well
I think of all the things that have gone this wrong
Timing's never been worse
Your hair is sparkling white
All covered in snow
In my ugly coat tonight
Move the hair from my face
My glasses are foggy and broken
My eyesight is worsening in this dark
Tell me will you see
Every time things go so well
I think of all the things that have gone this wrong
Timing's never been worse
