I remember photographs Watercolors of the past He turned and said, "You ask much of me" Then when we made our peace We lay between the sheets He turned and said, "I set you free" Go on, be a hero, Be a photograph Make your own myths, Christ, I hope they last Longer than mine Wider than the sky We measure time by Go on, be a hero, I set you free Your stagehand lovers Have conquered me They'll send yu carnations While smiling faces look on and applaud Go on, go on, go away from me I said, "Do you wish me dead?" Lip service to books you've read Articles on how to bed a bird in flight You called it love I called it greed You say, "You take what you want" I said, "You get what you need" Go on, be a hero, be a man Make your own destiny if you can Go find a fence Locate a shell And hide yourself, go on, go to hell Go away from me I need no charity He said, Come unto me I am beauty I am the light Come unto me Hold the darkness and stay the night I am wonder I am the heart's delight Tomorrow we'll fight Come on, come on Come on, come near to me Come be my fantasy We'll talk it over again some time You'll send some flowers to change my mind But for tonight, turn out the light Hold me, come on, come on, And set me free Lend me your charity
