Текст Cricket Blue — I Hope You Never Think of Me

I hope you never think of me
My old friend. I never think of then
To end up in the country quietly
Just like you would have guessed–
I never would have lasted

Oh, but here I read your name I found
Where I wouldn’t know it
And the sight of it calls my forgiveness out
I never did let go of it

I read an interview you gave
About your work, your followers
You said you try to not perpetuate–
Pass on your harm–you said that it is hard

Oh, how the cluster flies rush out
Once the window’s opened
Are hundreds more still hatching in the house?
To get them all is hopeless
I hear them circling around

You never told me how you’re hurt
What he did when you were just a kid
Only read it in an essay that you wrote
Along with everybody else
But it’s your story to tell

Oh, friend, I hope you made it out
I hope you’re not afraid to
Let someone feel sorry for you now
Does their sorrow still betray you?
You said the poison in your cup
Was my fault, I should drink it up–
A fraction of the poison in the flask
That you’d been passed

And then this fragment comes around
Just like a breath, your tenderness
Drove me an hour to let a lover down
Stood by in the café to bring me home again
