A HARD STORY

One thing you need to know I don't care about you anymore i broke the memory tied with wire behind the refrigerator you ate my heart on a full moon night a dirty job for all the rainy days I've been through a hard story in the dusty basement where does the current jump when the movie is on television one thing you need to know my pockets are full of your orchids better only on the couch with a beer in hand better not ironed shirt what I wore when I had a beard and my father was alive I broke your memory thinking you'll be old and you'll die like any other in a day senra light like a lifetime you can't tie me to your memory I don't remember the years and days I just don't remember you and I don't want to do that now that you're gone
