I just want to know
How long you will be here
So i can cover my heart
With a thick blanket of potency
So i do not have to cry
When you wake up one day
And leave me by the roadside
In a city packed with wolves
With no idea of the streets
Or the
road to my home....
I just want to know
How long the flowers will come
So i can cover my soul
With less anticipation
So i do not have to curse
When i wake up one day
And the red roses have withered
Their red petals have become grey
Or the leaves shrunken to dryness
And
fallen at my feet...
I just want to know
How long you will love me
So i do not make a fool of me
When i wake up one day
And you have never been a lawyer
Or that house you took me to
Is owned by your rich uncle
Or the car you drove me in
Is actually for your boss
And you
are just her driver...
I just want to know
How long you will be here
So i can cover my shame
When you steal from your mother
And buy me rusted pearls for my neck
So i can cover my shame
When you drink yourself silly
And wake up in a cold cell
Because the beer was expensive
Or the bar man called you broke 
I just want to know
How long you will break my heart
So i can shield it with steel
When the random girl calling you BFF
Is almost due with your child
I just want to know
So i can start to pack up
Every little piece left of my heart
So i can walk to the rail
And let
a train run over me...
