I Never Told You What I Did For a Living

Stay out of the light or the photograph that I gave
you. You can say a prayer if you need to. Or just
get in line and I'll grieve you. Can I see you? Alone.
Another night and I'll see you. Another night and
I'll be you. Some other way to continue. To hide
my face. Another knife in my hands. A stain that
never comes off the sheets. Clean me off. I'm so
dirty, babe. The kind of dirty where the water never
cleans off the clothes. I keep a book of the names
and those. Only go so far. Til you bury them. So far
and down we go. Touched by angels though. I fall
out of grace. I did it all so maybe I'd live this every
day. Down we go. We'l never again and never again
They gave us two shots to the back of the head.
