12My head is [full of fire][], my tongue swollen, \
13pregnant with all the things I should've said \
14but didn't. Last night, we met each other \
15in the dark, remember? You told me time was
16
17pregnant with all things. I should've said \
18something, to draw you out from your place \
19in the dark. Remember, you told me time was \
20only an illusion, [and memory was][] only
21
22something to draw. You, out from your place, \
23I out from mine, that night, I believed in you. \
24Only illusion and memory were one, lying \
25[down on your couch][], through the night you drew
26
27me out from mine. That night, I believed in you \
28when you told me you loved me. I lay \
29down on your couch. Through the night, you drew \
30a picture of our [future together][].
31
32When you told me you loved me, I lied \
33[in the dark][]. Remember, you told me time was \
34[a picture of our future][] together. \
35My head is full of fire, [my tongue swollen][].
