Yes You Are

Jandek


Go ahead and take it on down
It's only up you know 
Go ahead take it off, all your clothes 
Stand in front of me and show me 
What you are 
Oh I'm not that really but 
Yes you are 
Don't kid yourself 
You made it good 
You made it bad 
And all the time you knew 
Just what you were doing 
And why 
I don't have to show you where 
The worst and the best choices were made 
But oh before you go and make any mistakes 
Let me give you my only heart 
In a manner of speaking 
I think you're really something 
I've got no time to spend 
Talking all around the subject 
But let my body tell you 
Just what I think about you 
What else do I have? 
Not much 
I made it grow and helped it along 
And helped take it down some too 
I'd love to lift you up 
Show the world to see 
Before anything gets hold of you 
Ripping and tearing 
You really did need that 
But if you do I know how it done
