In The Haze Before Dawn

She is nothing
If not
Heartless

Plead your innocence
Go on
There's none left
Not really
That child
Has quit you.

She knows what
She does to me
And does it anyway
Because I let her
We both want her to

Take my last cigarette
On your way out
Again

After all
The first morning train
Leaves right before
I fall asleep

And though you say
I'm not good for you,
Period,
It's only in slumber
She finds me
Worthless.
