Feels all wrong
Nothing went the way gods designed
Forgot to push the off button
And the heart still pounds
Happy flavours growing thin
You remember nothing or try to forget
Every single kiss, every single word
Are you strong enough?
My knees tremble like they did
That first night
Speeding under the stars
Tears hide because truth hurts
In every inch of touched skin
Don’t want to talk
Don’t want to admit I dreamt so much more
My soul reluctantly bleeds
Each drop echoes in sleepless floors
You step on and away from
Are you trying hard not to know I’m here
Pushing me away in every way you can
Or just trying to hide?
Are you strong enough to make it all go away
In a faded old photo memory?
So why are you still here
If you don’t know my name?
Just another handful of salt
In fleshy secrets
What might bring you back to life?
