The Slim

Do you know where you're going? Do you know where you've been? Is this simple, is this simple? The chances seemed so slim In a cloud, is it cloudy? You've clouded up again Your perception, your decision Your decision Behind, I'm left behind Oh, I'm left behind, I'm left behind It's a matter of time Your protection from ejection My rejection Protection from a slide Projection from a slide Did it all seem so easy? So easy to concede Giving in, giving in The chances seemed so slim In a moment, just a moment Oh, I felt you rushing in You were rushing, I am crushing Your rush to cruise this time Oh, I'm left behind Left behind, I'm left behind It's a matter of time Your protection from injection My rejection Protection from a slide Projection from a slide And I with your breath on my pillow And I with the memory Do I get to wait it out never put it away? When you left with your death I felt empty when I looked back On my pillow, what you used to say? What you used to say? Behind, I'm left behind Behind, I'm left behind Left behind I with your breath on my pillow I with the memory, I get to wait It out never put it away When you're left with your death I felt anger when I looked back On my pillow what you used to say? What you used to say? And I felt your breath for a moment And I heard your voice for a moment Then I looked back On my pillow what you used to say? What we used to say? The chances seemed so slim The chances used to be so slim Now, I swim alone, the slim alone The slim alone, the slim alone To honor and obey To cherish and to worship In sickness and in health For richer, for poorer, for anything Until death do us part
