Remember when you promised
That you would never leave me?
That your heart would never stop shining the light
That kept me warm during the winter
And whole when it was summer
And holds me like no other light before
Like the petals of a flower
Taking chance in its abundance
Take for granted what they gave you every day
But when autumn takes them back
I don't know who to ask
I haven't left the house in ages
I'm so scared that I am dying
Pray to God that I'm not ready
Slow my heart and keep on trying
To tidy up the mess
That I've been making most of my life
And continue making music
That I know you only like
Listening to
When you're in my shoes
Remember when you promised
That this would never happen?
It said so in the letter that you wrote
Now I'm so cold during the winter
I want to die when it's summer
I hope you die when another has your heart
And smashes it into
Irreparable pieces
And leaves them on a cold, tile floor
Projected to the open where your mother can clearly see them
As she steps over the mess that you once were
So they'll be forced to lie
Right there next to mine
