My fingers are white like whispers. and the lips that consume them are flames. for lack of better things to set on fire.. . My knees are red like rumors.
We haven't talked in a while.. I stare out the window, mile after mile.. You said I live in denial.... . Well so what if I cry like a child?. I still melt in the wake of your smile,.
Welcome to the last time. That You can buy my answer. With less than a question. I would sell the hands off my wrists. If they weren't so preoccupied.
I thought of writing you a song. in a tired repetition. of the words I meant to sing you all along. but never did.. . I have some great appreciation. for lunar tides and roses.
When I wake up on fire. and get caught in the sheets,. my dreams of safety hit the floor.. I've heard the air raid too many times before. to be bothered by the bombs..
I meant to see you one more time. in that white dress splashed with brine. from the northern coast. where we learned our lessons the first time.. . A line assigned to paper,.
Show me a light that doesn't go out. when the people tire of tending it,. when they go to sleep content.. . Show me gold that we can wear. on the inside of our wrists.
I can't be expected. to hold this up.. You're spinning tops. and when they drop,. am I responsible?. Is what you're telling me?. . Well I'll give my money.
And even after we all collapse in laughter. and all the perfume passes from hands to tapered glasses,. we're still stuck in suits and dresses --. loosened ties and glassy eyes and.
I'm tired of seeing you boxed up. in cardboard and army fatigue, threadbare in 20 degrees.. And I'll be walking around you so lightly,. hoping that you won't disturb me.
Come home. Come home. . I am so temporary. Tell me I can sing to you. With my mouth so full of blood. . An' I am so fragile. Tell me I can run to you.
I've been tearing at this gauze over my eyes. and clanging cymbals till I couldn't hear. your screaming anymore.. . I used to speak in the tongues of angels,.
Yeah yeah hey,. Oh ohhh. Yeah yeah, yayyy. Desperate, and in love. I was young and I just couldnt get enough. Gave you my love and fancy things. You gave your love away for free.
Her body is a torture weapon in disguise. From my view. She knows that she's a liar. Said she'd never give into desire. . Darling, I am on fire. Don't you let me go, let me go, let me go.
Kill the lights. We're losing time. We won't win this fight. Until our hearts collide. . We were running away from nothing fast. Falling down until we finally crashed.
When misery dreams. The city doesnt sleep. She craves the perfect life.. There is a party in a hearse. And everybodys been dying. To get in.. . Misery cant feel..
The anger won't leave me. My blood still runs cold. Forget all the glamor. Forget all the gold. . Are you listening? Do you even care?. . Am I just a face or someone you trust?.
I'm walking in the shadows of my own tempted soul. Time is ticking by. While I'm chatting with this bottle of wine. I know that I'm not perfect. I'll admit that I'm a fool.
Zwei, drei, vier. One, two, three. Its easy to see. But its not that I don't care so. 'Cause I hear it all the time. But they never let you know. On the TV and the radio.
Sinking into myself. I think that you play. No, don't dulcify me. Never known hasty pain. There was a burnin' twilight in your glance. There was a shy and womanlike excitation.
