The endless drives && oh how hard I tried to make you into something that you'll never be. A beautiful soul seen through soulless eyes, why are you haunting me? Walk away from everything you've ever loved && pray to god they don't follow you. Ample regret, is what you whisper. Coarse lips && unshaven face. You never really learned to love, because you've never learned to lose. The truth permeates the room like stale cigarette smoke && cheap vodka. I took the pen && drew you a map of the shortest way home, I dotted the lines && shaded the trees just for posterity.
I was your get out of jail free card.
A look you were trying on for size.
The ending to the story you never thought to write.
So how about we meet in December && compare our scars behind the dumpster of a sleazy dive. Push me up against the cold brick wall && give me a kiss that never meant a thing. Walk away from me again, baby, just give me a little less hope to hang myself with.
