let the wind lull me to sleep
each violent note
my body grows weary
falling into a deathly slumber
sick dreams
of the girls with black hair
and red eyes
drunk off of their own misery
weeping
weeping
because nobody gives a damn
no one will stop
to wipe the tears that drip
from your chin
the only comfort you have
is in the wind
