Wine To Conceal

You thought you held my delicate disguise
Withering strings, sewn so carelessly
But the tension held no weight,
Just the ghost… left of what you sought,
Humility’s the one thing you never brought.

Keep it cool (cool), no words (no words),
But we both knew the hurt
Sippin’ wine to smoulder
Sippin’ wine to hide the fire

Elusive, so rivolous in your theme
Guess I was your pride, stitched in a tailored suit
Clouds echo words of tomorrows sorrow
Freedom is a holiday— here’s your parachute
But treason’s too acute, still tracing reasons I loved you.

Keep it cool (cool), no words (no words),
But we both knew the hurt
Sippin’ wine to smoulder
Sippin’ wine to hide the fire

I kept myself afloat, keeping us together
You kept us together, in a way it didn’t matter
Your love became my sweet affliction
Visions dissolved in your indecisions
Now this silence builds a funeral...
No more parachutes, just ghosts of you and me
