Isto - Since You Said We're Through

This song comes from my 2016 album, "A Fool at Large."

I've been lonely here in my bed
Icicles forming all around my head
It's so cold, I don't know what to do
Since you said we're through

Just can't move a muscle, can't sit up straight
Paralyzed from head to toe, that's my fate
I'll be here for a while and I know that's true
Since you said we're through

I don't know what's happening in the world anymore
The papers just pile up at my door
Leave 'em there, I don't care what's new
Since you said we're through

The milkman, the iceman, the potato chip man
They've all done everything they can
But you can't help a man that you can't get to
Since you said we're through

A priest came by
To try to save me with a benediction
My landlord also had a try
With a notice of eviction

Everyone it seems has been in my yard
The army and the navy and the national guard
But you can't cure a broken heart with a coup
Since you said we're through

The tv stations came
With cameras and crews
But I can't move my mouth to speak
So I'm not giving interviews

And I'm gonna be here in my bed
Lying motionless until I'm dead
A monument, baby, to me and you
Since you said we're through
