10. So we part

Never trust a poet
never trust in my guitar
never try to find the meaning
or the truth in all my lies
never talk to silence
never go on a green light

I never meant you no harm
I never wanted us to part

What I mean’s not what I say
what I say’s not what I think
what I think is not shown
what brings me down is not below
it always brings me down a lot
it always makes my mind roam

I never meant you no harm
I never wanted us to part

Perhaps inside my head a car is parked
the driver’s dead it has a broken windshield
and the rain has left it soaked and wet

Perhaps if I don’t care about these things
and lead a life forgetting all I’ve done and said
was that car red? I wonder now

Never trust a poet
never trust in his guitar
never try to find the meaning
or the truth in all his lies
never talk to silence
you might as well get no reply

I never meant you no harm
I never wanted us to part
I never meant you no harm
I never wanted us to part
