Caretaker
Ed Tullett
Slowly I’ve been trying
Hell’s unyielding symmetry, above
Below, in all of us
You gave me all this life
I can’t even say how much I owe
Hell, I’m still in love
Stuck repeating us
I won’t even try
I can’t recall your touch
So don’t even
I’m just a caretaker
A habit for some time
It bears repeating
Fittingly, I’d run
I can’t reset the sun
A backup for real life
A haven in my image, boarded up
However it’s spun
It’s never been worth it
I won’t even try
I can’t rеcall your touch
So don’t even
I’m just a caretakеr
Feel it in your gut
You don’t belong in love
