Oxygen - Simon Joyner

I burned all the love letters

I had ever received

And I took the hot ashes and

Laid them at the cold queen's feet

But she didn't shed a tear at all

She just gave the order to raise a wall

To keep the lovers out and the others in

Then I was free to leave

Well I thought it was safe to

Turn around rest and relax

What with all those familiar

Faces piled up in the past

But with a trail so scorched

And torn and poorly patched

There are holes that pull

The precious into a collapse

If you stop to blink

So don't be surprised

If your memory dies

And your will simply fades

Like a marching parade

Dwindling down a dark street

Heart skip a beat

Or did time pass you by

While you were wiping

The sand

From your eye

Thats I thought you were going to

Follow me through these lonesome valleys

Now I'm facing scraping

This stone wall all

Alone

All the ghosts who once pursued me

And routinely abused me

They're no longer enthused enough

To do me any wrong

So it goes

I ran across a stranger

Who said he knew me when

He said

Last I heard you

Were in need of some oxygen

So tell me how can you hear

The phone to say

That there ain't nobody home today

When you're drifting along

The bottom

Of the ocean

I said I'm afraid we've never met

He said don't be surprised

If your memory dies

And your will simply fades

Like a marching parade

Dwindling down a dark street

Heart skip a beat

Or did time pass you by

While you were wiping a tear

From your eye
