For Marlon

(album: I Thought I Was An Alien - 2012)

I broke my toes
Coz when I'm sad
I get as clumsy as a stupid clown
But you're way too young to understand
And I'm way too desperate to be sane

So I fall for you like a fool for gold
Coz you look so pure and I love your voice
I can hear the cracks of your youthful heart
And it makes me wanna be
A part of that

Till I said
What's there on your arm
You said don't look, please don't ask
I know you won't like to know that
I'm a recovering addict and sometimes I relapse

But if I get sober
Would you swear to love me
If I get sober
Could you fall for me?

And as I was ready and didn't car to doubt
The wheel has spin and left a drought
I thought I knew back then to never ever trust
Someone for who drugs come first

And I think there's no love
But just proof of love
And you've just proved me
That you'd never care
And it's been raining for 3 days straight
As a sad reflect of my sorry state

And I remember you said with me you felt
The best that you've ever ever felt
And I think that no drugs can replace
The warmth and tenderness that we embraced

And if you get sober
I will be here for you
If you get sober
I'll be yours for good
