So you said to me this phrase as you grabbed my collar
your shirt on me
You pulled me to you and I should have said no way
I
should have
Would have
Could have
felt
thought
heard
that
word
thought
tone
that we were only you and I
never really a we
I was your expendable time
but your clock just struck
zero
