Oh, the wild thoughts a love can inflict! |
MANI / PEDI when I'm dim and dirty, I don't clean the house. when we fight, I don't clean myself. When the lights burn out, I don't care to change them. you keep me bright, when I'm feeling dark. You keep me vivid, when I want to be seen. But the tricky things I do Capture everyone but you. With those bright blue eyes and the madness they see through. So, For now I'll freeze helpless and nervous at the bank, with my hands held high. soon I'll be the criminal who failed, Hanging his pistol from arms reach. and You'll be the billion dollar heist who wouldn't fit in the bag. So what if my bag was bigger? what if I had no gun to hang? What if i was ten years older? What if you were ten years younger? Would I have still been as foolish? Would that be a wrong doing, that people would see as right? What If i Did nothing? What if the face behind the mask, was gruesome and scarred? Would that get me something? Would that make you love me? I didn't need another Best friend to share a drink with. Instead I found a love that I learned to drink to. You drove me to that station, On that train home from Chicago that drove me to drink more. You protected me from violence. You showed me peace after all of the wars we've won. And when the dust finally settled We toasted to our victories. And to this year we've defeated together from the invasions we held from two separate fronts. We sleep with the enemy, we know them quite well. because I am your enemy, and you are mine. when we've run out of enemies, when there are no towns to raise, we will finally face each other. we will fall together. two feet shy of the bed, but that's exactly what we want. |
