I need...

There's blood on your flag
it's wet and dry,
but your mind is staring at the sun,
you don't see the road,
and the boy next to you is limping.
He needs your help.

Those plastic plants and
those brand new trees,
are waiting for you
to give up smoking
and kiss that guy.
I need your help.

This bed feels warm
there's something on it
is it your body next to mine?
or is it you next to me?
There's a little boy in here.
I need you
