How I'd love to experience a heartquakenBut oh so afraid it will end up with a heartachennThese untimely little deathsnWould leave me out of breathnLife would flash before my eyesnnYou might become a liabilitynAnd I a reliabilitynStill I'd know how it feelsnnThe absencenIs highly presentnIt smothers menAbsorbs me like a black holenThe absence of longingnFills up time and spacenTons and tons of emptinessnWeigh upon mennYou're a bumpkin groping and fallingnBut you're my pumpkin prescious adoringnWish for you to say itnFirstnnBetter to have failed in true lovenThan never knowing what you long fornBetter to feel painnThan to feel nothingnn
