leeches

I
even when the body's gone,
the bones will lie
keeping tabs on their former haven,
and their lovers eyes.
even when the blood is gone,
the wounds reside
even when im all alone,
i hear you sigh.
II
dont pretend that i dont know
just what you've done
we're both awake and well aware,
of what's to come
but i wont drop what i have cut
and broken ties to keep hold of;
and i wont stop what i cant help
cause ive got no one but myself
and what is left of your embrace
to keep me on the earth's cold face.
III
high is all i'll ever know
when my body's getting cold
i wont believe a word im told
and i wont ever get old.
