with every sip of hate I spit out the aftertaste to wash every bit of you away
and I lick at the salt that falls from my eyes down my face
I knew the world would never be the same
once I met you
and though it's all my fault, I'm at a loss
got married under the wrong set of stars
those holes in the sky were crossed
and though you were wrong, you were always right
should have given you a soft touch on the cheek
instead of another worthless fight
can't smoke enough to desensitize my tongue
I can still feel every atom inside my lungs
never got a search warrant
so the jury is hung
no clear-cut verdict
for either of us
my guts, my guts, they've dried out from the inside
ran out of bodily fluids on the day we died
I run, I run, but there's no place left to fucking hide
you gave up on me thoroughly and everyone knows why
so I concede and retreat to my empty life and cluttered room
to become the nothing everyone knew I would be
and wrap myself in the blanket that will become my tomb
but to be honest, there's just one silver lining
i've learned from the broken promises
and never will stop trying
to find something perfect and this time
i'll give kisses on the cheeks
instead of worthless fights
