Different ways of counting fingers running through your hair

Ten to twenty lifelines if you doubt how this compares

There's fear enough to share a fear of loathing

So easy how you bear the trace of me without you there



So fall like the snow too much to slow

Too fragile to say hanging over every day

A breeze with contempt to shame the others

A story's too thin to cater all your lovers]



Count me out your standards shadow trade in competence

Ten to twenty answers shouting down on confidence

Too easy not to share to vain for secrets

There's fear enough in there a taste of need in someone's care
