| we'll settle for nights of love and loss pretending we've never felt the warmth your lips. my touch. you twist and you fold. no one even knows. storys of my heart are broken crying in a fit of uncontrolled rage. "i gave him all that i could give, and still i wasnt good enough." we'll stand in the cold. my hair in my face, and the wind across my skin your hand in mine. my eyes on you. nothing ever seems to go my way. you'll confide in me when nights grow long and your broken heart is no longer strong. i will not lose myself in you this time. i've played this game, and lost my soul to many times. my lungs are filled with smoke. tears weep out from my pores. the night is still early and filled with hope. but as it wears on my eyes fall with disappointment. my head on my pillow is filled with sweet dreams. memories and tragedies .. lost hope with blood, and cruel jokes for fun. a night to define the past .. laughter rings to drown out the silence. awkwardness never tasted so sweet. i'll give you all that i could ever give ... but i guess its up to you if i will ever be good enough for you. just .. forever remember the taste of my tongue for tomarrow i could always be gone. |

| the seat is sticky from your heat on mine another intoxicated night brings shame i've known you what? two weeks .... and already i hate you for what you've done whos to say its even your fault? knowledge doesnt surface when my bodys become numb your lips move over my existence in such a sloppy manner do you still remember my four lettered name? a scarff around your bare neck pants undone and ready to rip my hands explore as you bite on my neck how could i say im not a whore? four months passed without a change build up the lies and forget the undieing shame you listened to every single word i spoke but you fumbled through my closest to find the right emotions to stroke smoke in my hair and beer on your tongue shes home alone without an ounce of hope but she'll play along im sure shes really not that dumb you love to love her, and hate to want me she is your security blanket and i am your storm give me one more month and my mind will be made sent you a postcard that said "i've been great" my phone doesnt ring with you on the line i've denied you access and im doing fine but still theres those nights when i lie awake and question if everything was painfully fake you'll see me again with my hand in his will it kill you to see my lifes become bliss? your brought me down farther than i thought i could go but i came out a winner. this is something i now know |

| this moment seems so simple a thick skin of insecurities forgotten by a core of brutal honesty she'll slip her hair and smile shes been here before broken and wild pale skin melts on your lips dies on your tongue this innocent texture reaks of havoc so she'll hide the scares on her eyes and bandage the burns on her fingertips pull back her skin to show you more a bloody interior and powder soft bones she hides these cuts deep in her eyes a moment so simple in a disgusting disguise her hands never stop shaking a cigarette to make things move lips the bruise and teeth that tear a lonely little girl with nothing more to bear her stomach in ties and her feet in tangles walking never seemed this hard but when shes all alone the good things die and she cant remember she throws you off with one flip of her tongue and cuts you deep with a simple nights love but everything she trys to hide surface on her beautiful eyes the creases of her face never fail placed there with one simple task to give her away and make her yell about all the reasons she should leave and all the things that make her decieve loneliness is nothing but a disease to eat at her insides and make everything bleed shes grown accustom to the pale blue pills one more for you, hun, and we'll all be gone seal her lips with one spoken words break her back with the wieght of your demands shes crawling across this floor of glass sliceing her knees and forgetting the pain in her back these lips grow lold and this body cheap but atleast now the one you love can finally sleep simple girl i am all that you need im there when you're "dead" im there when you sleep you look at me through glass that reflects and eyes that no longer can remember tolook back lonely girl i am here by your side because all you have is you and your selfish mind shes leaving me to rot and wishing she was the same because here i stand crying trying to feel this forsaken rain. |
