Jill

Call me John I'm dying of shame Self respect is a hideous game A lonelier worm you couldn't find Severed in two but still alive I write my diary in the hand of a girl The arrogant, innocent headstrong Jill She's fond of books and the British Museum She doesn't take cues from you, me or them Oh! Jill are you really there Take no heed of my distracted stare It all began as a trivial lie When you brought me back from the edge of life Oh! Jill are you really there I think my head's up in the air It's not my aim to trivialise But you brought me back from the edge A savage hope, a secret smirk My room mate found my peculiar words He's only gone and fallen in love with her Chuck another coal on Christopher No feeling can live too long In this well of seclusion Who's that raving at my chamber door It's Jack and Jill forever more Oh! Jill are you really there Take no heed of my distracted stare It all began as a trivial lie When you pulled me back from the edge of life Oh! Jill are you really there I think my spirit's beyond repair I've locked my cell from the inside Come and see me Jill whenever you like
