More from ~joeliphious

sequence[1]
I put my shallow soul behind a locked door.
It left a cross-shaped scar just above my heart.
In the dark you slipped your fingers over it,
In the dark i felt so alone.

You cut out my stitches with a dull knife.
Tight like fishing line, pushing my insides.
I never felt your breathing pause,
I never felt your bleeding throat.

[2]
We left the night behind,
And the room shone so bright i could barely see.
Your body was like an island,
Your heart was like a stone.

[3]
You didn't hear my broken pulse.

Lead(you)

Lost the blood from your heart when you pushed it down
Some kind of broken high when you bleed yourself dry
You felt rushing, you felt bubblegum pop.
You felt life leave you,
and you loved every moment of it.

(me)

Fragile girl, won't you get to know me?
Wasting your time,
with my black fingernails on your wrist.
Broken heart, can't you come and save me?
Wasting my breath,
with my head under the ocean.

You were hollow when i touched you.

I loved your sigh in the dark,
as we watched the noose above my bed
where you cut me loose.

Your fingers on my collarbone
playing notes i couldn't hear
i could only feel your voice.

We broke the nails in each others backs
twisting and turning,
i lost everything i came here for.

[x]
You were hollow when i touched you
empty skin and bone i couldn't feel
there was nothing i could do.
skeleYou're not the kind of girl i should fall for.
Whoever knew i would watch your skin melt away?

You were the medicine i loved to take.
High on burning plastic and oxygen.

You're not my heroin. You're not my empty bottle.
Scars trace your body like broken shoelaces.

You were the music i wrote, sad and empty,
The only noise i could hear in a dark room.

You're not my broken wing.
You are my skeleton.
