Imagine Me

Imagine me in your waiting arms When there’s no need for alarm Cause i can be such a dangerous breed So many lovely things i’ll never need I could have been your downfall, darling Will your weaponry invite my scarring? I can’t wait for you to run out of patience So Tune this out or turn up the station This is starting to feel like a disaster Pick me up; the past is happening faster Explosions shredding me to the center Waking nightmares sing “return me to sender” Ghost will haunt me as I stand by addiction 6 feet under; where I bury conviction Sipping whiskey and spit into the fire One foot out as I jump into the pyre
