I've swallowed my pride and spat my feelings out
Told you things no one cares to know about
You knocked down my walls and I stripped my armor
Opened the windows, welcomed you to my doors
We were happy, explored the rooms together
Built new ones, through the gardens we wander
Yet as I offer you a permanent place, you refuse
You're my story but I'm not your muse
Told me you were only having fun and passing through
A temporary shelter, until you find someplace better suited for you.
I watch the pebble skips in the water
As my heart flips, flips, flips
The ghost of your touch, my knees waver
And I weep, weep, weep.
The moon-
That was the last thing I remember
We were staring at it
Like it was the most beautiful thing ever
Then a hug
For that was the last time we'll see each other
I wish I have stayed
On that warm night of November.
My heart clenches as if it can still feel
Can still discern what's right, what's real
But I know better, it was torn
The day it fell for you, I was reborn
I can still feel the phantom beating
I can still hear the echoes of footsteps receding
The day it fell for you, I was reborn
That was the last day in my sleeve, it was worn.
We trip and stumble around
We're lost, but we don't want to be found
This is our own little paradise
Away from the world and its lies
And for a moment, there's only love
We can't let them taint what we have
So please, stay a little longer
I'm not yet ready for this fantasy to shatter.
The clouds roll in
Lightning flashes
The storm falls
I saw you
So beautiful, so wild
A force to be reckoned with
Leaving me again
In awe and in ruins.
One eye blind, one bright and clear
Both swimming with doubts, both filled with fear
One hand with gun, one gripping yours
Both bloody and bruised, both aching with force
Your lips on my ears, whispering the same words again and again
Telling me you're sorry, to pick up the pen
But the one's not holding mine, clutches a sword
And blood flows through my mouth instead of words.
