Did I?

Did I recall this in a dream

Did I wake you with a scream

Did I make all this come to pass

Did I really show my ass

Did I once believe I belonged

Did I choose to breathe poison for so long

Did I painfully let you down

Did I betray my failure as a clown

Did I get caught in my own devising

Did I decide on public housing

Did I blame you for all my tonal defects

Did I make the cut too deep to forgive or forget

Did I crash the car on our wedding day

Did I kill you then and a ghost decided to stay

Did I understand the sounds I hear

Did I encase your bed with flowers of fear

Did I become your greatest defeat

Did I hold your dreams as only a morsel to eat

Did I become the salt in your childhood wounds

Did I bind you as a captive in my mind's ruins

Did I pluck the shine from your entrancing gaze

Did I make you a sport of my very exclusive maze

Did I explode your hope of happiness

Did I tell you how it turns me on when you undress

Did I explain that all my excuses are useless

Did I convey that in the end I did choose all this

Did I paint a picture with colours that ran with our tears

Did I bring you here to only to declare I never cared

Did I ever show you that you are loved

Did I ever give you a really big hug

Did I ever invite you to walk on the mountain

Did I once love you more than the stars worth counting

Did I ever kiss you in the misty rain

Did I make you understand that I feel your pain

Did I...
