Skinny

Don't stab me

With your daggers

In my back

So deep

They don't hurt me

They don't harm me

Far

In the center

Of the earth

The roots

Of love

Where they were

Will remain

Among the forget-me-nots

I left our forgotten Aprils

At the bottom of the closet

Of the guest room

They were golden times

Of a better past

Though I'm almost mistaken

And I tell you little by little

Don't lie to me

Don't tell me the truth

Don't stay silent

Don't raise your voice

Nor ask me for forgiveness

Though I almost confess to you

That I've also been a companion dog

An ideal dog that learned to swim

And to come back home

So I could eat

Skinny

Don't stab me

With your daggers

In my back

So deep

They don't hurt me

They don't harm me

Far

In the center

Of the earth

The roots

Of love

Where they were

Will remain
