the stars not bright enough for what you will the sun is older now from overkill the clouds swim listlessly to lifeless seas some distorted face on the screen
fingers stumbling on the keys automatic poetry phrasing phrases virtual victims of what used to be part-time dying the burning urge for nothing special there's always you there's always you behing my eyes
i choke on words choke on laughs i bleak my skin to dirt and coughs i gasp for smoke h some light pleading guilty beg for night
but night's a coat that wears me inside out my mouth a grin that scares me like my own the clocks all stopped their ticking never rains into my mind change me, please change me
or come back here and breathe my life and close my eyes in quiet nights and wipe these stains away from me and start again and hold my hand and all i need is what i bleed and all i see is not for me the wind still cries, the crows still fly, the poets lie and i'm too scared to dream
your smile a ghost a haunting blue in my nights you'll never know the way your eyes closed my life
soul in black and white these hours without you still smell of worn-out photographs icy dreams repeat the second the world froze with your cardiograph circling downwards charcoal teeth inside my head sharpened grey gnawing in my bones all this talk of getting over forgetting replacing regretting
drift into this void cackling out myself life goes backwards here life leaks screams escaping from escaping nothing nowhere nevermore whoever whenever: agreed stop me going on stop me, please
