Poem
Soldiers sacrifice their arms and legs 
While your greatest weapon is forcing my hand
Oh but I'm told it's all in the name of romance
But when I fall asleep at night and the pillowcase 
goes damp under my face,
You'll know I heard what things you whispered as you fail to say them to my face

There's only so much time you can spend in space 
And there's only so many victim trophies to go around in the first place 
But you can only ever be alone in space 
And my oxygen has already suffocated me 
without the shift in atmosphere
And just when I think your words are starting to intertwine us,
They disappear

Out of my hands, and into your layered mental shield of self protection
Out of my ears, and into the file of your toxic denials
Labeled under "reasons I knew I was right to move on" 
I'll save my best chorus for you, my saddest song 
The birthday card I never got 
Said "let's get this party started"
And I'm praying that we end this on a good note 

Out of my hands, and into your violent guilt spirals
Out of my ears, and into the dying wishes of my last chance
That you chose to hold against me
All in the name of romance 

I never got to see you in the light I wanted 
I never got to hold you in the darkness you always fall in 

Soldiers sacrifice their arms and legs 
when all I've ever wanted was for you to hold my hand 
I'll never see you in the light I wanted 
I'll never get to hold you in the darkness you fall in 
The title of that book I never read
Said "let's get this show on the road" 
And I'm begging that we end this on a good note 

Diamonds are worth their weight in gold 
Your one-word responses 
Make me wanna light myself on fire 
I touched your soul and it gave me frostbite
Shoulders aren't the only things running cold 
Diamonds are worth their weight in gold 
If you weigh them after they're sold 
That short poem you wrote in 6th grade 
On the back of your homework 
Said "here's to those who softly spoke"
And I'm really praying that means we’ll end this on a good note 

All royalty stems 
from sociopathic tendencies
And you might just have the ego to reign
Longer than Charlemagne

You can’t have your cake and eat it too
If our love was shown in wavelengths,
It would have more flatlines than an ICU 
Don't worry, your friends are already asking
Who's running this hospital?
Who's running this hospital?
Don't worry, your friends are already wondering 

A one way ticket
But not because it's a means to an end
But because if you miss the train,
It’ll never show up again

Don't worry, your friends are already asking
Who's running this hospital?
Who's running this hospital?
Don't worry, your friends are already wondering
