Whalebones |
He found a curse around his neck |
Like a yoke; |
he knows he’ll never forget |
The way she cut through his bed |
Like a snake would bite through a cape of flesh |
But he holds her |
Though she’s broken |
Swears he don’t care where she’s been |
He’s tired |
Of being human |
Wears her close to the bone as though |
She were his own skin |
Shoots from the heart instead of the head |
His mouth and his words, they rarely connect |
He looks to the past and where his tongue’s tread |
And he knows he’s meant the opposite |
But she holds him |
Like an infant |
Though it breaks her in half |
To know he’ll wake like a man |
Sold on cold indifference |
When he reaches for her, she’s gone |
She slips like the wind through blackened sails, but |
Who are we to love at all? |
I hope you don’t mind |
If I hang all of my hopes |
I hang all of my hopes on this time |
Although I’ve been warned |
I’ll probably get burned |
I’d rather get burned |
Than to not try |
I hope you don’t mind |
If I hang all of my hopes |
I hang all of my hopes on this time |
'cause you won’t |
Let it go |
