Throwing smoke
Cast the first stone
I stayed up
While you left home
How do I know
If this is worth keeping
Should I measure the tears we've cried
Against the arc of conversation?
One last kiss
One more cigarette
Abandon me
A dead soldier in your bed
Where did you go
Were you shown some revelation?
Should I remember the scene of the crime
Or lose it in translation?
You were my everything/I tell myself that this is just a bad dream
There is no love
No future in nostalgia
No blessing in brokenness
Only feelings to be guilty of
But I'm waiting for someone to prove me wrong
Closing wounds
Things we dispose
I'll steal your books
You'll bury my clothes
When did we end up
Playing in the dark?
Were we really tired of stalling
Or just afraid of false starts?
Revel in
This post-apocalypse
Undo the seams
Of two hearts' eclipse
You were my everything/I tell myself that this is just a bad dream
There is no love
No future in nostalgia
No blessing in brokenness
Only feelings to be guilty of
But I'm waiting for someone to prove me wrong
