I feel like I'm suffocating
Buried under it all
I can't breathe
But sometimes I'm not so sure I want to Breathe again

I'm suffocating
Buried 6ft under

She walks in plain sight
She lets her dark hair fool you
She wears waterproof mascara
Can you guess why?
She is primped and primed in this preppy paper town
She sits alone yet never looks lonesome
Why?

She walks in plain sight
She wears water proof mascara can you guess why?!
Not cause she's afraid of the rain
But because she's prepared of the inevitability of it
She's primped and primed to perfection
A porcelain doll
In a porcelain town
With a porcelain heart
Beautiful but breakable

There wasn't much to really say
On that gray and fateful day
There wasn't much to really say
As I watched her walkaway

She said "Pick your poison"
and I must admit
Her selection was quite impressive
Bottle after bottle
Each unique in it's figure
No single one containing a liquid of the same shade.
Some older than me
Others predating my father

When my eyes finished scanning
as if they even had to
My words came out softly
Possibly to lull her troubled mind
"The only thing in this room I pick, is to have you in my life. Forever til the end."

I think I was born to hold her in my arms.

Watching distant city lights dance and twinkle with the night sky.

The clouds forming the perfect backdrop as we spectate from a distance.

Surely when I find her we can make that dream a reality.

Live the kind of nights that you never forget.
