I can still smell the lustful intentions of your perfume
in the shirt you once wore.
I regret all the meaningless battles
of a couples war.
I know you will soon be
back inside my arms.
but the voices inside of me
scream with jealous alarms
I argue with the lies
inside my head;
I know one day
we will be wed...
I cry as I kiss the ghost
of you in memory.
I know our love binds and distorts
in fearful symmetry.

I know you will soon be

but the voices inside of me

I argue with the lies
inside my head;
I know one day
we will be wed...
I cry as I kiss the ghost
of you in memory.
I know our love binds and distorts
in fearful symmetry.
