if i had everyone i know in my own little box if they were laid out before me like so many precious rocks if the lonely wind started to'blow colder, i'd put one on my shoulder but if they ever started lying or they're fighting or just cryin' i could toss 'em in that box of mine and they'd be gone gone, gone, gone (they'd be gone, gonegonegone) if i'd my own little darkroom with all my thoughts in black and white in the basement, hung up beneath the clocks i'd always know what it was i was thinking even if i'd been drinking if i ever felt enveloped by a thought that i 'd developed i'd just crop it up and sell it and then fella's well it'd be gone i tell ya gone, gone, gone if i could just hold on, to everything i could just hold on, and nothing would go missing if i can just hold on i will have everything if i had all of our words reeled below me on tape i could just stop and eject if i needed to escape and if i ever just needed some company it'd be spinning in front of me but if there ever was a word that you had said i don't deserve then i could take it and then splice out what i heard and then it'd be gone - gone, gone, gone i will collect you bit by bit, one by one i will collect you piece by piece, stone by stone i will collect you.... bone by bone
