lyrics

frozen, shaking, shaky hands
recollection through pillowcases
eyes cold, you’re close to me now, how?
a few blocks down
bruised knuckles and bloodied thighs
invitations, inspirations

smoke out the window
smoldering my lungs as i struggle to hold words
and blow them through my teeth
i wish i could take that image from your brain
i would wish this on my worst enemy
you

you owe me this one last favor, he will scream with handprints in the walls
screaming and someone’s crying
no time for New Years, and a missed call
twisted metal necklace
broken handcuffs, free, finally
the walls fall down around us, we’ll build them back up
don’t build them back up

smoke out the window
smoldering my lungs as i struggle to hold words
and blow them through my teeth
i wish i could take that image from your brain
i would wish this on my worst enemy
you

smoke out the window
smoldering my lungs as i struggle to hold words
and blow them through my teeth
am i the mouse to your serpent, eyes staring through the glass, bewildered?
i would wish this on my worst enemy
you
