Slut

10/8/12

Last night, I just couldn't wait

I would stay where I wanted

Or put my feet to the floor

I said, you were always too far to reach

And that there was nothing more

Finally, I found myself

Right where we left the catch

Shaking like leaves caught in the breeze

At the bottom of oceans deep

All of this was enough to keep

At last, I am the very last one

The only survivor of last night's death

And even if I wanted you back

I know the sun will rise again

I know I'll wake the frozen touch

That turns my face to stone

Even if it was enough to care for

She'll never make it alive to the door

Though I'd let her inside 

And turn on the lights and pull 

My corpse from the rotting floor

To see you there once more

Precious love, take care of yourself

You swore there was light in the windows

Climbing up the stairs to kiss your lips

And feel your face, with trembling hands

And this time I won't watch you leave

I'll turn my head and just believe

That I am alone
