Care from Cannibal by Open Skies Treaty

With our terms set out before us
our eyelids touch the glare.
I wrote you in the contract.
Into your dotted eyes I stare.
When I said you loved me
It wasn’t written down in stone.
You wiped all of your memories
With your bottles and patron.

Don’t say you care
Just so you can say
You said you care.

With the waste strewn out before us
All the death before the dawn.
With your fingers clutched around me
And I had to yawn.
With your envelopes all licked shut
And your secrets all laid bare,
If you had to say what you wanted,
Would you say…

Don’t say you care
Just so you can say
You said you care.
