there was a moment when
i didn't hold you for security

i could say the wrong thing
you wouldn't give it back to me

anyone can do what i admit i did willingly to you
they can even make you believe that you wanted them to

don't pretend i am not still the boy you first met
or that i am not the man you hoped would grow to be kept

i want you without me

i want you alone

disconnected

by the telephone
