Powerless

Let me give it all to the very small thing
that leaves me... powerless.
I see my face from another time, from a day
gone by (good-bye).
Arrogant and fast, a smile that leaks onto 
the saddest things.
I know I know then what I don't know
now, what I'll never know again.
Smaller now. Powerless

Finding some shoes. Losing your feet.
Finding some food. Losing your teeth.
There was a time when the world was
mine. Now it's yours and I'm... powerless.
I hear your voice from another time from 
a day yet [bad word] (here [bad word] .
Beautiful and slow, a tear that washes
through the gladdest things.
Now I've forgotten how not to give it all
to the very small joy that leaves me in tears
and... closer now. 
Powerless...
