EGGSHELLS

**I've been trying so hard to not try so hard I was afraid I had forgotten how you take your love or how to forget the ghost with no eyes I've never actually seen and that he may have taken your love for a spin new glow; checking your hair and makeup every other minute in MY mirror though that walk, and new vicky secrets sets that hold you like they've been built with your curves in mind I panicked I couldn't remember the pass code to your belly laughs to your fingertips, to your deepest confidences to your sweetest dreams... to your water well I couldn't remember you told me it was his birth year spitefully, in a heated beef I've been trying so hard to not try so hard I was afraid I had forgotten you take your love the only way your heart knows how; black, no sugar I'm anxious Nobody supposed to be here... you said I keep waiting for the other heel to drop I beast with word gods, I'm a monster but your cat's got my tongue? Imagine that I've been trying so hard to not try so hard I couldn't remember the pass code to the pride I tried to live above I forgot that I selectively forget self-destructive notes to self “fucked up people fuck up people, no lie" No matter who. You can't believe their mistrustful mouths And just when you decide to accidentally forget they remind you that they can't help it You are who you are... you are who you love I take mine with caramel and whipped cream by the way You never asked I've been trying so hard to not try so hard And I need to be way too cautious on this brokedown joyride**
