I see threads Leftover tokens From where she wept And you keep giving side-eyed energy As if you weren't the one to leave And I remember each sad line Read from her diary Every time Reaching out Desperate to breathe I've known more than A thousand sunrises, Ruined by sunsets And a hundred melodies Ruined by your need to leave When we met Bards and satire were unequipped You breathe deep Life into all of your stories... I keep trying to find my worth And I haven't found its place just yet Somewhere destined for your memory And someday when youre asleep Long after you've forgotten me I will remain, alive Within your damp sheets And you can be brought To screaming through the night But the ride of your life Will die with me Your favored enemy.

Wet Dreams
I see threads Leftover tokens From where she wept And you keep giving side-eyed energy As if you weren't the one to leave And I remember each sad line Read from her diary Every time Reaching out Desperate to breathe I've known more than A thousand sunrises, Ruined by sunsets And a hundred melodies Ruined by your need to leave When we met Bards and satire were unequipped You breathe deep Life into all of your stories... I keep trying to find my worth And I haven't found its place just yet Somewhere destined for your memory And someday when youre asleep Long after you've forgotten me I will remain, alive Within your damp sheets And you can be brought To screaming through the night But the ride of your life Will die with me Your favored enemy.
