Nov 2017
I lay on your bed in an imprint that isn't mine
Left there from the last girl that you found yourself inside
Kick away her ******* that are the color of you
And pretend that I'm something new

Killer eyes, foggy lies straight from my nightmares
You'd never guess that I relish in every scare
Grab me by the throat and silence my screams
Rip apart my resolve with your teeth

Self-delusions are grand but not as bold as the truth
It's screaming at me from my friend's mouths, pouring out of you
I know I'll never be able to take care of you
Because that's not what wicked girls do

I'm so colorblind but I see red so very well
Want to rip into your heart just to see it pool and swell
But when you entered me I saw another hue
And now I see that I'm red, but you'll always be blue
