i never want to see you
|
in the raw and searing flesh
|
i don't ever want to hear you
|
singing softly to the dead
|
i never want to feel your skin
|
running warm along my side
|
i don't ever want to sink that way again
|
it would be easier to die
|
to die
|
|
i'm tending the parts of my frustrations
|
burning leaves on buried dreams
|
kneeling in to rake the ashes
|
i'm in the rain, it's colder out
|
my hands are free,
|
my lungs are proud
|
your forgivness is a failing fiction
|
your forgivness is a failing fiction
|
these flames have never burned so high
|
i won't be starting in your eyes
|
|
i'm trying hard to remember
|
the way the smoke drifts through the air
|
we'll all be dead come november
|
four months out of every year
|
every year
|
(every year)
|
|
i won't be staring in your eyes
|
every year
|
