Cheek

Hidden Track

Cheek


So breathless 
the night carves her airwaves out of leaves.
I am up against 
tattoos of scars and skin 

So cold 
So deep
I'm twenty feet and sinking 
faster than the ship I'm in;
Useless to jump or swim

I could hold my breath till I blow up
and make this all seem real. 
No matter how hard I try, 
I cant seem to win 
this stupid game. 

I apologize 
for keeping you up. 
Wasting all your time.

So I'm stuck with 
the image you walking me to my car.
And how nice it felt to be alive in someone's arms.

Last night 
felt like 
the only time that we made sense.
And every moment after which 

Chalk it up... 
to coincidence.

I could hold my breath until I blow up
and make this all seem real.
There's nothing like waking up
after all the sadness 
has been slapped off.
And its just me and you, 
looking at all these things.

How am I supposed to breath?

Lucky for me 
we were lying down.
Just from kissing you 
I could of passed right out.
