lyrics

I meant to say that you look sad in all the photographs you sent me of your body in the morning light, your disposition terrified. But the thought must have slipped my mind for the past three or four times you drunk text me at night. Is everything alright?

I meant to speak with truth and prove your lullaby was just a cry for help. And I fell asleep so soft you’d never have to wake me up. But lately you smoke some weed and that way you can fall asleep and dream of me and I’m powerless to stop you.

But I am terrified that lately you have changed your mind just as quick as I had made mine up. And I’m stuck like the insomnia in your eyes or the paintings that I foolishly describe top mind that you wouldn’t dare try. It’s your skin that’s alive on my hard drive tonight and through all of this time you somehow survived to turn my fears inside out.

If I was a braver man I’d toss them out by next weekend. But the thought must have slipped my mind for the past three or four times I drunk text you at night. But everything’s alright.
