Can you wipe the stains away
as fast as
windshield wipers push aside the rain?
Do you believe rain ever really sees an end?
Or just cycles back around the way a child makes believe?
Let's play pretend.
Do you believe in it all depends?
Does pain relive itself, the lulls building their way to a crescendo?
Can you run away from here
faster than
the car I'm unwilling to steer?
Do you believe roads ever really reach their ends?
Or just circle back around the way a child makes believe?
Let's play pretend.
Do you believe in it all depends?
Does pain relive itself, the lulls building their way to a crescendo?
Don't runaway. I need you to stay here and keep me warm.
The icicles from my straining breaths are quick to take form.
I never sang you to sleep,
now it's me awake at night.
I never sang you a lullaby;
it's keeping me up at night.
I never sang to you,
is she singing now?
