In this world, they seem to adore you,
Their eyes are bug eyed and blessed.
Regardless of what I've felt from you,
It means nothing to the rest.

You deserve a universe full of hate,
my blood boils with joy from the thought.
Because the love that I gave had all gone to waste,
I gave you my heart and for what?

This town is stained with our history,
each street is another open scar.
each restaurant is like salt on my memories
another stab in the back from afar.

It seems like I can't turn anymore
without a haunting reminder to see,
I can't run away, I can't close the doors
it feels like you're everywhere to me.

Whenever I'm with you,
I don't hear our clothing fall.
nor the change in our breath,
or the neighbors down the hall.

There is no sound in between us
the heat then speaks instead
it dances with us, back and forth
leaving sentences in sweat.

I have never heard hesitance,
or shame when we are close.
I hear nothing but the sweet nothings
that we already know

So to me we lay in silence,
which is strange to all but us
but our true love is deafening
if you listen hard enough.
