Anchorite (Love You Very Much)

You never stopped smoking
But I forgive you
My words and my heart
Were not enough to give you

And my words always sounded wrong
It was easy not to listen
Still it pained me to see when I left
You never noticed what was missing

After all that’s unsaid and undone
I know this can’t mean much
But I hope that you find someone
Who loves you very much

No, I’ve never slept next to someone
Who wanted to sleep next to me
It was hard to debate
You couldn’t wait to lose your memory

And it didn’t take long
You were strong in your resolve to lose your mind
It was only a mistake that on the way
You happened to lose mine

Yes, I know in your eyes
We were never really lovers as such

So I hope that you find someone
Who loves you very much
And I hope that you find someone
You can love just as much

Sometimes I wish I hadn’t taken all my notes
On your rolling papers
But when you burned them
The scent was such a bittersweet vapor

I watched the flames silence the words
I was given in life
But if your heart was in it
I was glad to be your sacrifice

And though I’ll miss
Or at least sometimes wish for your touch
I hope that you find someone
Who loves you very much

Such a drag
Such a drag, oh
It's such a drag

(You son of a-
Fuck!
You son of a bitch!
Goddamnit!
You motherfucker!
Fuck! Fuck!)

(Hurry up, please
It's time
Hurry up, please
It's time
It's time! Hurry up, please!
It's time!)
