Echo.

Go ahead. Leave me again.
Run ahead, leave me burning in my head.
Again.
Want to take a walk?
How about wanting to run, "gotta hide, gotta go.
And it's beginning to, and it's beginning to..."
Left to my own devices and vices, left to yours what would you do, princess?
What would you do, darling girl, with the whole world on your platter in front of you?
Would you give it all up?
Eat it whole?
Would you sing its praise and love to the skies and then
Who would listen?
Who would sing back?
Of course you're left with only an echo to breathe back in:
Take care of yourself
Take care of yourself
Take care of yourself.
