Sleepless, part 2

You raise your glass once more
To my trust, to your fidelity
You talk too loudly whenever you lie -
Empty crystal is so transparent1
 
Like a restless person seeking his destination
Cannot linger at one place
Tell me, how many tooth brushes have you
Distributed in how many bathrooms?2
 
When you leave, I stand waiting in the hallway
When you are asleep, I lie beside you, awake
By daylight I block you out
Only when it gets dark do I get weak
 
I look up and see the same side of the moon again
The same pale face that is enthroned above us, as usual
Yet the cold light is but appearance
Your lies are sweet wine
When the morning comes, these illusions fade
The same side of the moon
 
It just hurts when I only think of it
And gloomy thoughts are easily blocked out
The moth flies like crackbrained around the fire
Until its wings are scorched
 
We get ensnarled by compromises
And you are keeping up appearances
Which makes your conscience turn hollow, like a ladder/run in a stocking
And you cannot stop at all
 
I look up and see the same side of the moon again
The same pale face that is enthroned above us, as usual
Yet the cold light is but appearance
Your lies are sweet wine
When the morning comes, these illusions fade
The same side of the moon
 
  • 1. Ican easily read your face and realize your words are empty
  • 2. How many women have you moved in with?
