exhaust my options
in a house gone up in smoke
but I'm bound to face the fire
if I stay, or if I go
damned if I do,
damned if I don't
I spoke too soon
how should I remember you,
when you come in phases
of the moon?
open minded
like an open wound
I've got enough to lose
I make myself empty
when I need to float.
And you told me
once you get in,
the water isn't cold
exhaust my options
in a house gone up in smoke
but I'm bound to face the fire
if I stay, or if I go
And when you don't believe in nothing,
& if I come back as a ghost,
well I would make my presence known.
Do what you want to me,
take to your heart's desire
you put your hands on me
& I don't even flinch
I swear it follows me
like smoke around the fire
Alone and lingering,
like a friend who won't take a hint
