|
Taxi lights break to a stop in a sleep |
|
Where the buildings were 10 stories high |
|
"Good morning" with backs turned |
|
With frowns feeding cold stares |
|
Taking their toll on the washing pile |
|
I was careful not to change you |
|
But I kinda blamed you |
|
For planning the future out |
|
Was careful to trust you |
|
But I know I ignored you for Halo |
|
But you're what I cared about. |
|
The planning stopped. |
|
Car crash collides with a drunk in a cold shirt |
|
With bruises on your lovely right side |
|
Goodnight was a mismatch of timings and routines |
|
That I failed to get right |
|
I was careful... |
|
Christmas was our first |
|
With our ceiling and our dirt with fairy lights jammed in a jar |
|
Trading places providing distraction |
|
Then the happiest moment so far |
|
I was careful... |
|
Neighbors complained, racket volume explained |
|
But our silence was a concern |
|
Knuckles were bleeding and screaming and sliding |
|
Came screeching to a stop |
|
I was careful... |
|
And it's my fault |
|
My fault |
|
My fault |
|
The planning stopped |
