walking along in the dark is a good way to begin a song walking home in the dark after a long day chasing criminals is another running away from an imagined evil is no way to begin a story i am telling you this because you wanted to know what it is like to tell something so beautiful everyone will cry i am telling you because i want you to know what it is to keep everything inside of you i am telling you can you see can you see into me and reach in your hand and pull me inside out like an old shirt will you wear me until i unravel on your shoulders will you cut me apart and use my skin to clean up the cola you spill on the floor when you're drunk i want you to know that i want you to know do you want me to know is to know i you want we we want that is why we're here to want is to be is to want and i want you do you also check yes or no there is a way to end every story every song every criminal must be caught even those who cry dry their tears i cannot tell you all i want because i want to tell you everything there is no art because there is no mirror big enough we wake up every day sometimes we sleep
