Leaky Breaks

Leaky holes and fire escapes will Set the evening for tone

You and your holy halo started burning eventually just froze

Sewn into the carpet just trying to thaw out whatever I know

The thermostat it won't go higher not that you or I know

I was drinking heavily

I burst into your bedroom belligerently

Asked her if she's done a thing like Stepping out and making a scene

So Foolishly I was apathetic so I blamed your family and Never mended it

Shitty brakes and balding tires we're out around on the road

You and my little sister, flashy frequent scariest snow

And we return just fine

I started to crack your analytical code

By the time you're convinced, I know

When I was drinking heavily

I burst into your bedroom confusingly

Yelled about a bunch of things that if you looked you'd never see for our eternities

And I blamed you for not being

someone you could not be someone you'll never be

Now I see everything and everyone you see

Killing time alone inside a stripped and nakedest home

Couldn't catch my brain up with the sights and fear that I saw

Fell into the doorway hoping you had left the guitars

It's way too late for calling anyways I guess I'll doze off

I've been drinking carefully

I creep into our bedroom and watch you sleep

My mind it wanders onto things that if I try I can't explain

As if there's something worse

As if there's something worse, to have weaned away your worth, when I was so absurd

Well is there something worse?
