i've come to a realization
|
that my tounge isn't helping this
|
your voice only makes it worse
|
when i'm starved for your goodnight
|
kiss me on the lips and swallow pride despite its taste
|
when the ones you love
|
are slipping slowly out of place
|
and ever inch of skin will bare
|
every scar that you could tear
|
every transgression is seeping infection
|
|
but i know that this is hardly over
|
and i know that i could only hope for the best
|
but rest assure that in my chest
|
resides the blackest heart
|
we need warmer nights to feel alive
|
and spill our entrails to the floor
|
without a tounge i'm choking on
|
the selfish words that come
|
to fill my mouth and...
|
|
i've come to realize this cancer honestly
|
is eating me alive and i've been wondering
|
if my own eyes will open to the light of day
|
when the voices take sounds of sirens
|
rooms of silence screaming out decay
|
|
but i know that this is hardly over
|
and i know that i could only hope for the best
|
but rest assure that in my chest
|
resides the blackest heart
|
we need warmer nights to feel alive
|
and spill our entrails to the floor
|
without a tounge i'm choking on
|
the selfish words that come
|
to fill my mouth and...
|
