|
Love, four words, explode above a mnemonic device |
|
To remember how it feels when I am with you |
|
The glass can't hide, my wounds will find the salt around the rim |
|
And this sting won't help this bleeding heart forget you |
|
Perfect lines like space and time extend across my room |
|
But they don't help me get any closer to you |
|
But open the door and the clouds come in |
|
And find you sleeping on the floor |
|
Get used to the numbness, you won't have to feel that anymore |
|
But maybe I'd be better off if I just answer quickly |
|
And make no distinction |
|
If it's going up or coming down, it gets confused with progress |
|
It is only motion |
|
And all this time still hanging on into such codependence |
|
I will fall completely |
|
And all the lines you drew for me to walk |
|
Well, I walked them well, didn't I? |
|
It is one less tongue that bends to say your name |
|
As I drive away the love songs play on my lonely radio |
|
But I shut them off because all they do is make me miss you so much more |
|
And so remains these twisted days |
|
I spend time by myself |
|
And attempt to make this failing heart continue to beat |
|
So open your mouth and the smoke pours in, tastes so lonely |
|
We are so bored, just breathe in the numbness |
|
You won't have to feel that anymore |
|
But maybe I'd be better off if I just end this quickly |
|
It is not romantic |
|
I am just giving up and shutting down |
|
I am just so sick of thinking my head is broken |
|
And in this aching bed we are lying on you |
|
Get your forced confession, I am ****ing lonely |
|
And all the lines you drew for me to walk |
|
Well, I walked them well, didn't I? |
|
Now there is one less tongue that will bend to say your name |
