Since You Came

<br>&quot;Today&quot; is such a deceptive word<br>For I spent all my days<br>grieving loud<br>I sang all my pain<br>so distressingly<br>Just to hush up any imploring shout <br>I couldn`t speak<br>`cause the words I knew<br>Like rotten mushrooms dissolved<br>You came out of that<br>burring host of sounds<br>Brought me back<br>solid consonants and vowels <br><br>And now my skin is<br>so close-fitting<br>Keeps the line with all the rest,<br>since you came in<br>I used to dispel among the things<br>that people wanted me to do <br><br>I thought we got too familiar<br>To be lovers that<br>cherish the flame<br>All that we need<br>is attention<br>And I know I`ll always give you the same <br><br>`Cause now my skin is so close-fitting<br>Blending with reality,<br>since you came in<br>Nothing ever moved me<br>like your patience <br>While you taught me how to choose
