Public Embarassment Blues

Bring your silver railroads(?)
bring your tender and scented white breast
bring the coldest blue eyes in this world
bring the taste of liquor and cigarettes
Bring your voice that cracks and ?withers?
bring the love i'm pathetic to crave
bring me one more night long and bitter
and bring me the face of the woman i hate
Then put on your clothes and go home
just leave me alone
This bed is warmed by your shadow
my fingers still trace the lines where you laid
now my thinking's distorted, and is shallow
twisting the knife in the idiot face in my rage
Bring your torn and scattered pictures
bring the sweat and the stink of your love
bring the whispering words i thought that i'd heard
bring me the wound with no healing or cause
Bring me the tongue that you put in my mouth
and bring me the pain and the chuck in my lung
tell me you love me but not very much
don't bother with reasons, just go
just leave me alone.
