Smoke some cigarettes
laugh at the process
  meet the woman you longed for
and have a beer or two.
Tell her that her eyes are like bottle caps
   something inside of her is worth
every drop of intake
  and that her lips are soft as the pillows you rest on after a 8 to 5 job.
She's all the rest you need  
you're being captive by a soul
that sheds every time you are one step
away from her
And now that you have her
she'll turn to wine
and loving her gets better
as the years go by

As we kissed in a bar,
your lips tried to send a sign
I asked you if you're alright
You said "almost there"

It's a cold evening
   And I told you that I'm in love,
I asked if you felt the same way
And you said "almost there"

      Few weeks have passed
as I hold your hand,
  your heart now shares the same beat as mine
    I asked for the last time
  
" When's the moment till I can call you my wife"

"My love, we are almost there"

When my time  comes
I'll greet death like an old friend
a kiss on the cheek like a lover
And in its arms
I shall be embraced
Like a son
Who went home

I hope you'll find the goodness of man in me
My bones have been broken
    for fighting over a love
that wasn't meant to risk

My hands have turned into tools
that fixed everything I touch
   while forgetting I was being used
       In the process

To the next lover
   We are lonely people
trying to figure out
     how to be less lonely
Let's start this by saying
                 "Hi"

I ran away with you
For you have promised an eternity of smiles
When we were halfway through
I have now seen my very own demise
The garden of roses that I dreamt on lying with you
was a burial with two coffins
for me and for my heart that bleeds for you
