Get Thee Gone

My sadness does escape me now.

I care not where I go.

The black old man takes off my clothes,

And throws me in the snow.

I gave you all I had to tell

And you gave me your will.

Well that's enouogh to wind a clock,

But not enough to kill.

Go away my precious doll,

Get thee gone from here.

When I close my eyes to sleep,

Please do not appear.

I emptied out your bag of toys,

And let them spin their web,

But oddly as I watched them turn,

My love begins to ebb.

I run like blood through open doors,

I go where hope bends me.

You're in my guts but evermore

Our hearts will not agree.

Go away my precious doll,

Get thee gone from here.

When I close my eyes to sleep,

Please do not appear.

Go away my precious doll,

Get thee gone from here.

When I close my eyes to sleep,

Please do not appear.

When I close my eyes to sleep,

Please do not appear.
