Destitute
Everywhere she goes the grass is greener
And all the time I doze in my misdemeanor
Her eyes can make the sun come out
And I have fun just wandering about
When the sky is dark and the ground all mucky
She lays on the ground as if she's lucky
In spite of all my meaningless fear
She can make it all but adhere
There in the unknown am I
And she steps in without the bat of an eye
In the midst of the end
She can make all the bad disappear
Loneliness is nothing when I am with her
For she is absolute and sure
But dependency can only get one so far
And it is toxic to what we are
When she is gone
I am nothing
For united we stand
Divided I fall
