By The Throat |
Oh how easily they forget no anchor to the past |
Cut the blood supply and hope the heart beats itself to death |
My ribcage is not my own it still feels like your arms neck clothed in salt |
How’d I let it go this far? |
It happens faster than you could ever think |
From always and forever to never again in less than a blink |
The river runs until it’s dry |
But I die spitting my last drip into it’s mouth to keep it alive |
Long drives, wide eyes, and your smiling face |
You dance I drink, let’s waste the night away |
They say you always know right away |
But you can’t foresee your sand being pulled into the sea under a tidal wave |
Secrets leak out when you’re asleep |
Coming from a queen’s mouth, talk isn’t all that cheap |
I’m now a lone flame searching for a purpose |
Setting fires everywhere I go, can’t avoid the burns |
We shared pain |
You took me by the throat and made me understand the world as if I were you and |
I couldn’t breathe |
Now you can lead a horse to fresh water but you can’t teach it how to be okay |
when you decide to leave |
I’m lost, there’s no one to protect |
I got so used to being shelter from the rain that always followed you |
It’s not my first time, actually it’s nothin new |
But that doesn’t make it any easier to get through |
The snow won’t melt, smoke won’t clear |
Turned hope inside out a thousand times trying to see if it was ever anything |
more than dressed up fear, |
But the two go hand in hand you can’t have one without the other being there |
I’m barely breathing waiting for the spins to end |
Begging a god I don’t believe in to let me sleep so I can dream again |
We went through thick and thin |
Came out separate on the other end |
But please know no matter what you’ll always have me as a friend |
And I finally know |
Your crime is your pride and your past is my only ghost |
I’m going crazy out of my control |
But there’s nothing I can do, I have no choice but to let it go Each day gets a little less intense |
I no longer feel like there’s someone standing on my chest |
You made me more me, and I won’t forget the times you helped my find my feet |
When I was buried in my head |
Thank you, for giving what you had to give |
Taking what you had to take, |
And making me believe in you. |
Even though I might be gone forever there will always be a place in my brain |
that will think of you. |
You look so graceful when you’re flying |
Keep going, there’s a lot of world that you haven’t seen, |
You have my best wishes, even if only in silence, you deserve everything that |
you’ve ever dreamed. |
The snow melted right when the smoke cleared, |
I turned love inside out a thousand times trying to see if it was ever anything |
more than the will to persevere, |
But the two go hand in hand, the clouds surrounding you eventually will clear. |
I can breathe I found contentment in the end, |
Telling a god I don’t believe in to go to sleep so I can think again. |
We went through thick and thin, |
Came out separate on the other end, |
But please know no matter what you’ll always have me as a friend. |
