Not that it’s important but sorrow leads to love The road of darkness feels soft beneath our feet Moths circle a dim light in my heart Her lips are wet in anticipation Hunger consumes our skinny soul Legs no longer needed in this room A tree with no bark in an evergreen forest Our hands are one for only a second Eyes of tropical ocean green can see nothing at all A smile on a dead face is still a smile Liquid will fall and ease our pain Christmas lights are up all year long A warm summer breeze drifts across a frozen lake Death looms over our broken lives The sheets are clean A lie is the truth until it’s called upon Our homes are not on fire Teeth chatter in warmth Under the soil is safe and warm Hinder us in our hour of need Rinse away the crimson on your hands Finding a penny is unlucky enough The chip on our shoulder is sarcastic Only the toes will survive Naked is only a state of confusion Our virginity was found Never bury the hatchet A heavy heart is light in her hands Our response is likewise Faith is only a crutch for the strong Closing arguments are only the beginning Leave us to our selves See you in the morning.
