lyrics

Hopeful, Honest: Filing brittle bits of parchment/ Late nights at your apartment/ Maggots feed on apple seeds/ I hope they bury you and me somewhere close/ And we’ll entangle/ And strangle/ But at least we grow together/ Suffocating potential/ But in some macabre way, beautiful/ When I hear you sigh/ In your sleep/ Barely able to breath/ The dust of ancient memory/ Collects with the cigarette ash/ In a bowl/ Have I known this all before?/ This is a sad attempt at a love song/ I promise I’m doing my best/ But this heart will be the death of me/ I’m all geared up for tragedy/ I’m hopeful/ But I’m honest/ And I won’t make empty promise/ I just know I can’t stand to go or watch you leave/ Or carry on without me/ Violins swell when I’m with you/ I wonder if you hear them, too/ Or if you balk at the suggestion/ Or don’t understand the question/ At all/ Have you heard this all before?
