my hoarse voice, loaded with cigarettes ready to fire at the mannequin.
you manifest in my mind, and the echo of a long road is all i can recall. driving out into silence
i handed you a fistful of ashes, and told you to fix it. i want gold and you spoke.
damn it words aren't enough, i want your actions. your movement. your urgency.
feed me, with the fact that you live for me. breathe for me. die for me.
sometimes i feel like wasting away, but i get up every day, because breakdown feels like too much,
and nobody would understand. nobody would see the broken wings, or the broken glass.
you know i can dance. i can do it all night. i can do it in your bed.
dreams look so real, and i want to feel your breath on my neck. you're a thousand miles away now. breath on her neck.
everything faded to black, and not damn thing could revive it.
no electric shocks.
not a blip.
.
.
just heartbeats that faded away.
