Bright White Lies

1.
I still see your face in my head and my life pressed firmly in your hands. The scars that are on your leg seem like a road map for where this would end. Can he hold you from where he lives, or do you value the distance? I still feel you shake in my bed. From the moment that we met you let me in. You watched me smoke my last cigarette, down to my fingers, and you called me your friend. Can he hold you from where he lives, or do you value the distance? I still see your curves in my head, and how you'd touch me with such indecisiveness. I still see your curves in my head.

Those lips of yours, they've been telling bright white lies. My bodies fighting back, and I think it bested me this time. I don't sleep when you're a million miles away, so I'll drink until you're home, or until, at least I think you stayed. Because I've been worried lately this condition that we're in. We've given names top nothing. Oh, how easy it is to live. Mostly I just feel naive to picture you with me, but my darling we are dying, and there's no one listening. I've been thinking how people only crash to burn, and if you speak in pro's and con's then your room to breath is gone. Because falling is just like drowning, in terms of sinking, in terms of breathing. So before we take this ledge let's take a breath and face the cement. Because I've been worried lately this condition that we're in. We've given names top nothing. Oh, how easy it is to live. Mostly I just feel naive to picture you with me, but my darling we are dying, and there's no one listening. It's winter now so you won't find me sleeping 'lone, and I ripped you right to shreds inside my head and turned to stone. I know you want so bad a body to call home. My bodies dead, my will is shot, and my pride is gone.
