Ugly and cruel
Lies coming true
I split into pieces
And you were the glue
Covered in folds
Hidden in clothes
Your mind is so young
Your face is so old
When I woke up
I always looked down
I never won
When you were around
Opposites meet
But when we repel
The splinters of lust
Bear me to hell
Newspaper ink
All over my hands
The moon is so close
The astronauts land
But here in my head
Theres ruin and pain
Simplicity lost
Again and again
Hands that cant wave
Eyes that cant weep
Blood that wont rush
Head that wont sleep
This mind that is numb
Blade that wont cut
Ice that wont melt
It cant hurt enough
Yesterday
Nothing to say
Vicious and vivid
Still nothing to say
The light switch stays still
As the night time comes on
I just cant imagine
How Ill get along
