Caroline
i don't want this life anymore
should i have to want it?
everything i do
everything i say
will die alongside me
i could slit my wrists
jump off a cliff
or die in the most gruesome way
but it won't matter
in a state of decay
when my flesh melts
no more cards
will be dealt
except some bones
that will recall to whoever i'm found by
what i felt
i'm a dreamer
make-believer
miscommunicator
why'd you have to leave me, caroline?
what did it prove?
who do i have to kill
to keep you?
locked in my bedroom
together, we'll be entombed
together, we'll be consumed
and together, wear costumes
dressed as corpses
early doom
why do you scream?
when i am who bleeds?
rejoice, my love,
i love it when you sing
but stop playing with my heartstrings
today
i own the stage
