Better |
Lips were painted cherry red |
And there are fossils in my head |
You were young and full of dread |
Bathsheba of the strip mall set |
We knew vampires in our time |
Cutting in the bathroom line |
Looking bored and rolling eyes |
Ain’t pharmaceutically inclined |
Latchkey love and stolen pills |
Looking for a cheaper thrill |
Retrofitted Greek myth swill |
And in your hair a daffodil |
We could not have foreseen such light |
In your hazy, basement eyes |
Headphones in and thrift store leather |
Ask me why I care |
I thought you knew me better than that |
You will be missed when you go |
If you ever leave at all |
Hedonism’s restrained thaw |
Is flooding down and clenching jaws |
Are you good to drive? |
You’re in a state |
Hometown script is «I'm okay |
I’m sticking to the old highway» |
Suburban cops with empty plates |
There’s a fire that burns today |
It’s raging under K and A |
I look back at descending wraiths |
And remnants of the failed state |
I knew you then and I know you now |
But at some lost point you became un-tethered |
Pent up lusts and housing busts |
You ask me why I care |
I thought you knew me better than that |
All I know |
You said you’d lay low |
Cold halos |
You chose your way down |
Always so safe |
Always, always |
I thought you knew me better than that |
