Seperate faces help him to walk across the tiles
As he justifies existence with flinches and false smiles
And he used to feed his hunger
Shrivelled from the cold
And hes borrowed more than he can pay
His debts are getting old
The cracks had always been on show
The spirit always broke
The bottle always emptied well before the candle smoked
Tabacco always there on queue in someone else's glass
Someone else's secrets become someone else's path
I know you well
I know you felt
Like you should've been someone else
You felt
But I never forget your face
You melt into my life
I want your attention that she's getting from
Your loving arms
You let me soak your face
Into my memory
Like you want me
And you carry me
Wanting more as I don't know you
I don't own you
I just sew you into pieces
Of this fabric that i wear
Over my shoulder
Like a dream you fill me up
Make me cold just like a soldier
Trains our mind to do the killing
Even though he isn't willing
I have pain and I am cold
Without your heat to make me bold
Just forget that we're not molded
We're just solitary soldiers
Giving up on all this love stuff
It's made up and we're just older
I give up on you, we're over
I want reciprocal lovers
I want trust and I want safety
I want space and I need chasing
Want to feel that I'm the only girl around you who can know you
But I want to see you luring other women
Who can't own you
I want to see their faces
When you make them lose their graces
When you make them feel they're placeless
Chained around an object that keeps moving
You're a concept of a man and of an object
You are everything I wanted
All I seem to crave
Every human needs to save
Except for when I get up close
There is a maggot on the rose
Like a magpie stealing shiny things
There's sometimes diamonds
Sometimes tin
You are my darkness and you understand
I don't want anything but your hand
Just hold me steady
Hold the frame
And I'll
Shoot again now
I won't stop thinking about you
And if you're stripping me down
To my brittle bones
And crumbled joints
These open wounds just need some salt
Oh
It would be better if you left
If I can't see you I can't stab you
To the lines you passed about you
I can't have you
But I want you
This obession is not letting me slide
I feel I'm damaging myself to stay alive
I am destroying all I have
To let this burn easily
This little flame is not so dangerous
On it's own
