Fading

For What Reason

Fading


This Won't Be the Last You Hear From Me 
It's Just the Start 
I Hope That He Keeps You Up For Weeks 
Like You Did to Me

I Will Hold a Candle Up to You 
To Singe Your Skin 
Brace Yourself, I'm Bent With Bitterness 
I Can't Forsee

When Your Apologies Fail to Ring True 
So Slick With That Sarcastic Slew 
With Phrases Like, I Thought You Knew 
While Keeping Me in Hot Pursuit

Tracing the Plot Finds 
Skin Touching Skin 
Absence Follows

In the End I Win Every Time 
As Ink Remains 
Sour Tastes Prevail As You Play Back 
The Tape Machine

When Your Apologies Fail to Ring True 
So Slick With That Sacrastic Slew 
With Phrases Like, I Thought You Knew 
While Keeping Me in Such Hot Pursuit

Tracing the Plot Finds 
Skin Touching Skin 
Absence Follows
