6 cigarettes and weep before 7 AM 8 my words, drank cyanide last night before bed 9 gashes run parallel down my leg, go ahead Stab my heart it hurts the same 10 times out of 10 Again, again, again I grovel at your feet Anything to curb your tooth so sweet Bite the peach? No, I don't need So long as I can hold you up to the tree, baby Grief rises up through the haze- there it goes The scent of shame lingers and soaks- watch your clothes The stench becomes you You wanted it to Oh, hey! You made it babe (Finally) Right this way Now you can admit that it was all a mistake and We can get back to the way things used to be Used to be, ought to be for the sake of you and me I love when you weep with me It helps bide time between the lies and promises not realized I smile at every 1 word reply you send hours at a time That's alright! Maybe you can initiate next time (Remind you, remind you, remind you) Like I always do Cause I'm with you in spirit while someone else lies beside you You're welcome for the mood set by the lamps I bought you How can you not think of me while biting sheets I helped you clean While you're fucking coke heads and lames Who haven't so much as stepped inside and H&M Your brain, I understand it's not fully formed yet, but you've caused pain What was that about your brain Give me 10 I'm on the way Look at your back What a big scratch Who left that When you steal never your fault Yeah, you stole and got caught Another bridge burned, lesson learned As if your ass could manage that Steel coated with drips from veins varicose Head spinning like a wheel Put a bullet through the spokes Disgusting the visuals the mind's able to coax Oh, hey! You made it babe (Finally) Right this way Now you can admit that it was all a mistake and We can get back to the way things used to be Used to be Ought to be Need to be Hope to be Claimed to be Swore to be It's clear to me I'm not your responsibility Close the door, wear the key I'll learn to be For the sake of you and me
