Love On The Dole

Love on the dole is....
Like....
Chip-paper without chips
Or a fag without a light
Yes we all rally together
But we still can't stop
The bite.
And the...
Cameraderie dissolves
Like the pill you took
Last night for the headache
That you had as you tried to stop
The fight
And your love begins to fade
As you see no end in sight
And money flies out the door,
And so does love.
It takes flight
It flies to a place
Where the moment feels right
Where its all warm and fuzzy
And it goes on
All night.
But It left behind a place
Where your knuckles turn white.
And a wretched fretful sleep is all that happens
All night
And it's a dark dark hole
Where they still can't make it right
So let the chip-paper burn.
Like the love that once burned
........... So bright....
