Gone But Not Forgotten

Gargling with bits of barbed wire as I think of you Dipping my toothbrush in muriatic acid before each use I remember when you taught me to smile And as I toss a handful of thumb tacks into my boots before pulling them on I recall the night we danced Peeling the safety cardboard from the edges of razor blades I drop them into my pockets They nestle there among the coins They hold each other as we once did And now, when I reach for change, I once again feel your touch Yes, after all this time, I am still crazy for you
