Do you like to live alone
on your own when things get cold?
Do you like to be alone
on your own, inside your home?
watching the rain drip outside
All the poetry you hide
And now you know it was your fault
You shouldn't get all that you want
You've no history to write
Erasing memories with new life
Love so intense
hidden in books
You've read about it
since you were ten
All of this time, he was waiting
to escape
All of this time
You know what's there
You don't have to tell
anyone, if you don't want
all of this time, you didn't expect
to win such a slippery prize
