A trivial and tangled bedroom floor.
Wait until the sun finally sets before
You climb the stairs to an apartment that you don't call home anymore.
You put your fingers to your temple in the shape of what resembles
The punchline to your way out.
Get me out. I just want to disappear.
Let me go before I burn us both to the ground.
Yesterday forgets you before you have a chance to do the same.
I see how much time you spend breaking
Your own heart over this.
Right on cue,
Every ghost you know comes right back to haunt you.
I am the question. You are the answer.
Who knew that those things just don't fit together?
So I shake in salt lakes because I can't explain
And you wouldn't understand anyway.
Get me out. I just want to disappear.
Let me go before I burn us both to the ground.
Do you recall the summer when everything you did
Was sponsored by your cigarettes and thoughts in your head
And all you talked about were ways to motivate yourself
To leave the house at least until you gave yourself
a reason to live.
Get me out. Let me go.
Yesterday forgets you before you have a chance to do the same.
