This I Know

Backspin
Off the back flip
Busted your face
Cut your lip
Still bleeding on the way down
Hitting the water at speeds
That exceeds
Natural needs
Like hitting a brick wall
If you can remember what hit you at all
If you even know what hit you at all
I still give you the ball
And see if you will call
Because you know you can call
For any reason at all
I try to give myself any reason
Not to call
Even though I want to call
Even though it won't change anything at all
This I know
That's why when I reach for the phone
I have to say "No."
Because you've already said "No."
