The lizard king came alive in the walls of prophets,
A shrine to help follow the subjects of the topic.
I lost my mind, but found it inside the tombs of those left behind.

I left a part of my soul on La Ciegna Boulevard.
The looking glass had the last laugh,
Some smiled.
The sun dials told the time accurately.

The shadows followed me from one side of the city to the other.
All the way to the coast of the continent.
It was here I found the confidence that was lost in the dominance of you.

We broke on through to the other side,
but it was too soon,
and the other side was the same like butterflies.

Cocooned in symmetrical thoughts of the stars in your eyes.
It’s no surprise we both knew it all at that moment.
Our toes exposed naked in the sand and lost in emotion.

I can't fight these waves anymore,
The tides are dragging me down.
I can feel the water filling up my lungs.
This feeling inside has become too heavy for me to keep my head above the salty sea.
I want to fight it, but it has finally taken over me.
"I feel we can't go through another of those terrible times."

Slippery tongues,
And damaged lungs,
Your back inhales,
Against my digging nails,
1 kiss, 2 kiss, 3 kiss, 4
You make me feel so much more,
You left,
And took my breath,
Behind my back,
You attack,
Slippery tongues,
And damaged lungs.....

While I was collapsed on the schools' bathroom floor,
Crying into my sweater sleeve.
I found out you should never mix not eating all day, and sobbing,
As I leaned towards the toilet gagging.
I dragged my body up off the floor,
Everything was spinning.
People in the hallways asked "Are you okay?"
I said I was,
Even though my shirt was still twisted sideways,
And the bottom of my backpack was still wet from the ground of the parking lot.
Not even death could fix how much this hurts.
