: : trace : :

I feel something coming on
It's been dead since you've been gone
Now I'm singing a new song and just tag along

I feel the sadness slip away
Spasms gathered in its place
No deep things lingering to face
Just tangled in a new embrace

And I feel me glistening
And you're tasting...just a trace

There's not a thing that you don't think
Explains your willingness to drink
Afraid I'll miss you if I blink
So I just fall asleep

There's not a thing that's left for me
Besides my sly ability
To foretell all that you can see
The thing we'll never be

And I feel me glistening
And you're tasting just a trace

I know I've finally found my way
Your scent gets fainter everyday
I'd like to squash you like a bug
And watch you walk away

I think I've found someone of late
He's just enough to fill my plate
You say that you believe in fate
But babe it's just too late

And I feel me glistening
And you're tasting just a trace

I'm throwing out numbers letters and stars
They once belonged to me
Now they're yours
