Lover's Script
too many in this room
open the window so I can breath
it's time for me to go
watch me pack and leave
the message that is clear
I can't embrace it all
written in lover's script
flowing across the wall
I need to find the key
to release me from this chain
the skin that now is chafed
a mark that causes pain
close the door behind you
don't even leave a crack
let me slip away
instead of pulling me back
