The Leavers (iv) The Jumble of Days |
Our lives slowly unravel |
Like wool pulled from sweaters |
We’ll knit something new somewhere else, so forget us. |
We are the Leavers |
You’ll stay and we’ll travel |
You’ll know where you are, always |
We’ll be vague in our jumble of days |
We can never be sure |
But be sure of one thing |
When the thrills are all done |
We’ll be gone. |
The Remainers can try to persuade us, and tame us |
And train us and save us and keep us at home |
As we try to fit in with the family life |
The mind-numbing comedown |
The trouble and strife |
All the misunderstandings, defensive attacks |
The walls we don’t dare relax |
And the hurt in your eyes, I know you know that I pray |
For the phone-call that takes me away |
We won’t be much use to you dead |
