The blood of many, the salt stained pink
A girl sitting pretty on the brink
And, inhibitions aside, a body to sink

Orlando.
Eleventh.
X.
Synchronicity.
Delirious.
11:11.
Cabo San Lucas.
Gratefully dead.
You in my head.
you're about to catch that flight, said you wanna wait on me. told you i'd been up all night, but it's better not to wait on me.

you'll be the love of my life until my tan fades away,
then we'll walk through the halls and be strangers again

i'll stay if it's the last thing i do.
i look for something new,
but old is familiar and tastes like you.
i'm counting the days on hands tainted blue,
shivering, cold, in the storm of what's true.
trying to play with the cards that i drew,
but i'll always fold, always fall through.
over the span of an ocean and a year or two,
i'm standing here shaking, waiting for your cue.

we're breathless 'cause we're always chasing us.
running this town then burning it down.
smoke in our lungs and heat on our skin.
both of us the same.
both of us insane.

i'm counting every sin
and trying to drown my pain in
benzos and cocktails
and it never really fails.
no one else has noticed i'm
never on time.
i'm always alone
or on my phone.
my speech a little slurred
and the roads a little blurred.
i cover up what i'm feeling
with meds meant for healing.
my intentions are clear
but the end's kinda near.
all 'cause i ended us.
it's cool af though.
i swear.
