Spider Song

Twisting and grasping and I cannot find her
First it was her body last night was her web
Glistening gossamer stretched from my pillow
Where I'd laid my head
Now I stretch my mind trying to find what she said

I wake and it's all faded away
And in the daytime I'm left
To figure it out on my own

Someone tried to teach me to never say never
It's so funny I never saw that one again
I'm sure they're still somewhere deep down
In the dirt in the back of my head
They just never call me it's not like they're dead
You can love someone and just not stay friends

Wake one day to find they've faded away
And in the daytime I know I've
Faded plenty on my own

And you used to tell me how you'd live forever
It's ok that's not what you tell me anymore
I used to imagine that you'd disappear while I became a crone
Either way I'd lose track of your flesh and your bone
I'd try not to be scared as I walked on alone

Wake one day to find you've faded away
And in the daytime I know
I've learned how to walk on my own

I wake and it's all faded away
And in the daytime I know
I've woven a web of my own
