shone through the curtains like milk spilling from a bottle
the sun gave me light in the gloom morning

and she shone from that pale peach sky
whispering "you can do today"

so i got out of bed with cracking knees and crusty eyes
drank my bitter coffee pretending it tasted alright

i met my own eyes in the mirror
and said to myself "you can do today"

You & I,
are a lullaby

We're the deafening *silence
just after the crash
we are moments of happiness
that never last

We're a riddle
that has no answer
we are both the cure
and the cancer

We've read this book
a thousand times, and in our hearts
we both know this fairytale
can never have a happy ending
