Frank - The Lemon Twigs

Where are your eyes in this lonesome hallway?

Why do they hide from me?

I’ll take the long way

Only a fool ends up tagged and buried

Dead in a pool of compromise, so empty

If I were a wise man I’d ignore the

pile of tears

But I’m not, I’m afraid

Don’t hurt me, I’m just a child

Spare me the games, I can do without them

«What are their names?», as you try to figure out them

When will you see that I am not lying?

And as I read I think, «am I even trying?»

If I stood before you and took joy in how we dance

I would play and would stay in suspicion just like a child

Where is my lover, the one who can see me

When did my light get distorted and greedy?

If I were a tyrant or destroyer of love

I would not destroy you, my darling

You’re not alone
