Tell me all about how you tripped
to fall into the grip
of wolf fangs once again.
You like to pretend
that life's been tougher for you
when comparing scars.
Why you even wanna reach that far?
I could teach you a little somethin'
about being true.
Cuz this whole frontin' thing
AINT workin' out for you.
I hate to be mean, but
this whole falling onto the cold concrete
and bawling while I hold your hand routine
is just too damn drastic too handle.
Downtown drifters lift their eyes
to find you crying out to an empty sky.
You wanna die? Why? A two week fling
that had your heart singing abruptly fizzled?
Interrupted before the end of the first verse.
See, they don't wanna let you finish.
Your self respect diminishes.
You timidly whisper my name again.
And I hate to admit it, but my head spins.
My heart grew too large to leave you
sprawled on that hard surface.
And you needed me regardless if you hated
it too much to see it.
So I'll kiss your wounds under this glowing moon.
Wipe the mascara off your face, place your head
on my chest and remind you that it'll be okay.
Laugh about it the next day.
Author notes
Maybe the prettier they are,
the more insecurities. Fuckin' bizarre.

Hello Everse. It has indeed been a while... this is white-floyd. I figured I would check out some of your stuff again.
I can truly say this this is definately one of your better pieces. Its a very catchy and deep song, and I like that a lot.
If you get a chance, see if you can comment on some of my latest stuff. If not, then its no big deal.
Do keep writing though.
