Night with its shattered teeth

Attempts to speak

My pen is present but

Courage left via the sink

I snuck up on you

From behind

I'm sorry not all

My love letters did rhyme

And I'm sorry that

Jesus died for my sins

And I swear to God

It won't happen again

Oh well

And Romeo was

A very nice man

He said

"Jewel, I don't think

You quite understand"

And I'm sorry if you had

To explain it like this

I'm sorry I was a point

You were destined to miss

I spoke to you irreverently

Down in the hollow

By the old olive tree

Oh well

Sometimes It be that way

I said

Oh well

And Aphrodite with

Her neon lamp

Kissed Neptune

They put her face

On a stamp

I used it to mail

A letter to you

I'm sorry I'm glue and

The rest bounces off of you

And I'm sorry not even

This jet's metal wings

Could get across

These simple things

If I ever sang

Your name in vain

Oh well

And Goldilocks

Well she knew three bears

They all ate oatmeal

And tiptoed upstairs

I never got to

Find you like this

Sleeping like a baby

And swaddled in bliss

And I'm sorry for

All the times

I forgot to imply something

In between the lines

Oh well

I said

Oh well

And shadow's long fingers

They dance on the wall

Electricity chases

Its tail in the hall

If my arms to you

Were just empty rooms

I'm sorry

I never could comfort you

St. Petersburg is

A miserable town

If I am bringing you down

If I caused you pain

Oh well

And flame licks the air

With its silver tongue

Night has many hands

But I have just one

I walked in on you

Unexpectedly

I'm sorry

I never served you

Camomile tea

I didn't always have a match

That could start

A fire big enough

For your heart to catch

Oh well
