Your eyes are so bright
Glowing through your lids
That you squeezed shut
As soon as I approached
My blue velvet jacket
Cuts open your skin
As my arms lose control
And reach out for you
My purple lips frown
As they match my eyes
The traffic screams
As I slip out of sight
Dingy streetlights are stars
Shining down on the pavement
That leads me back home
To where nothing lives
Water the plants
Feed my heart
Nothing ever comes
Nothing ever leaves
I clean the window
But the view doesn?t improve
It?s still just metallic trash
Amplifying the silence
Will you ever come home?
I am alone either way
Being swallowed by walls
And screamed at by fear
Your shirt slung over the chair
Worn out shoes in the corner
Is the mirror broken
Or is that just my smile?
Glowing through your lids
That you squeezed shut
As soon as I approached
My blue velvet jacket
Cuts open your skin
As my arms lose control
And reach out for you
My purple lips frown
As they match my eyes
The traffic screams
As I slip out of sight
Dingy streetlights are stars
Shining down on the pavement
That leads me back home
To where nothing lives
Water the plants
Feed my heart
Nothing ever comes
Nothing ever leaves
I clean the window
But the view doesn?t improve
It?s still just metallic trash
Amplifying the silence
Will you ever come home?
I am alone either way
Being swallowed by walls
And screamed at by fear
Your shirt slung over the chair
Worn out shoes in the corner
Is the mirror broken
Or is that just my smile?
