He says "stop beating the horse"
what happened to apologizing
or feeling remorse.
This ship has been lost at sea
whipped around and thrown off course
this isn't the love
I thought I'd receive.
not allowed to exist
shut my mouth
is what he wants to say,
instead of saying please don't go away
I hold on to what is
clearly dead
can't escape
the continuous murmuring
that exists...
