crocs in the water the city lights shined so brightly that night that we set on our way and foolishly me i was was following you seemed the right thing to do you pushed us on when i wanted to stop went left when the sign said right you gave me no answer when i asked our destination trust me, was all you were sayin come to a bridge i want to go back i can't, you've made sure of that  now there's crocs in the water  they're flashing their teeth  and the alligators are laughing  trying to get us in reach  i shouldn't be smiling  i'm losing my head  someone's been eating  my dry crumbs of bread  now we're lost, so lost  press on! this trip is a killer waiting for you it's friend it knows me too through valley and hill you lead somewhere don't stop for the bugs in your hair they're biting and soon nesting and whisper while you're resting to trick you've lost your mind but i'll loan you mine if we can just keep on going soon the snow will be blowing it's cold and we're lonely i think you don't know me and now we've lost our way a silent trust me is all you'll say  now there's crocs in the water  they're flashing their teeth  and the alligators are laughing  trying to get us in reach  i shouldn't be smiling  i'm losing my head  someone's been eating  my dry crumbs of bread  now we're lost, so lost  press on! i've followed you on this path for too long wanted to believe you knew the way will you hear when i say i've enjoyed sharing time i'll find the home that's mine with a tear in your eye and white in your hair i'll shake your hand and we'll part at this sand beneath the apple tree i'll travel alone so be proud of me i've learned some things from you and leaving is one of the things we do  now there's crocs in the water  they're flashing their teeth  and the alligators are laughing  trying to get me in reach  i'll laugh and i'm smiling  i'm losing my head  someone's been eating  my dry crumbs of bread  now i'm not lost, so lost  so long!  - Jason November 06   <-- Back to the poetry menu.
