Silver Love
i gave up
i lost my mind
i'm numb inside
my silver phone
with a piggy sticker on it
the back pops off
but the phone doesn't go off
then my silver love falls out
not my first silver love
for the one who stole my heart took that one
i go another
but shh
she dont know
i place it all down
a drowned rag in alcohol
rub my wrist clean
go back to my silver love
pick it up careful
she may bit my fingers
i drag her once
for she is new
she may not know what to do
i drag her twice
she still doesnt bite
the third time's the charm
with a little more pressure
like milking a snake
the red pours out
like a broken lake
i twist my wrist
flex it twice it starts to sting
everytings all right
i make her bite a few more times
just a little nothing to big
but wait the first wont stop
the rag+pressuer stops it from flowing
but i move my hand
OH CRAP
it keeps going
more pressure long time
ok better now
my mind relaxes i feel find
i put my silver love back to rest
in the back of my silver phone
with the piggy on it
the phone still doesnt go off
then go to sleep
to rest my mind
