Take a seat
On this cold metal chair
Pale blue taste that she's met many times (met many times)
Chalk choking bitter sweet
Met with a thousand unheard cries (I can't live this way)
Yet you keep yourself so clean
Medicine to help mend, to help you move, to help your aches
Expelled the problems that would slowly move us away
Hands, the hair, the aftershock to help re-sculpt, reshape the lie
A heart protected in glass
A frozen kiss, fragile goodbye
Love letters buried deep in ashtrays
Even dilated, she addresses him the same
Clenching final moments
And stealing the air you breathe
You're caught on a double edge standard
And inhaled your last mistake (last mistake)
Clenching final moments every breath
Claimed as an accident
Inhaled your last mistake
Last mistake
Last embrace
Blind blisters on my feral tongue
Once the secret's contorted
You must try to bury them
Devastation
Enforced purpose
You've come so far
Another soul for the streets
Nails pressed through beggars hands
