lirik lagu the exact date – marty gray
every day you show your age
your hairline shies away
slowly over time like sandstone
in a desert state
every year recoiling further frightened by the rest of your face and
you did nothing
you did nothing
you did nothing
when did she stop touching you?
when was the exact date?
when these things are finally noticed it is much too late
as necrosis stunts the weeds and chokes the seeds in early september
you did nothing
you did nothing
you did nothing
she was a firefly
on a midnight drive
innocuous and full of ease
she was a sidewalk light
many moth’s delight
ripe with breadth and subtlety
try to pin exactly when the neon lights went out
as a moldy cellar does surrender to it’s gout
tiny dives and dips to changing prices of gas amounting to your surprise when suddenly a gallon runs at three thirteen
she was soft in coming, yet was softer to depart
she let you go with a love watered down and a sterilized heart
how could you have noticed the changes measuring microscopically over the years?
you did nothing
you did nothing
you still did nothing
she was the sand on mars
the dimmest stars
shared a bed but far away
she spoke in tired sighs
“h*llos, goodbyes”
not much more throughout the day
could it be she drifted further as your body aged?
was your l*st the foolish glue that held you two in place?
fumes of your neglect untraceable in the air like carbon monoxide
you did nothing
you did nothing
you did nothing
