I never have to check my phone and so I watch the candleflame dance Fingertips grow numb to the soulless rocks glass My cigarette whispers secrets to a callous night And I think my cat died I’d check but I can’t take another hit tonight Unless it’s off a pipe She’ll still be dead in the morning Silence hangs about like an ugly hotel painting that’s been inexplicably bolted to the wall If I were to put a **** out on my chest to punish every thought I had of you I’d spell out your name A thousand times

a dingo took my baby
I never have to check my phone and so I watch the candleflame dance Fingertips grow numb to the soulless rocks glass My cigarette whispers secrets to a callous night And I think my cat died I’d check but I can’t take another hit tonight Unless it’s off a pipe She’ll still be dead in the morning Silence hangs about like an ugly hotel painting that’s been inexplicably bolted to the wall If I were to put a **** out on my chest to punish every thought I had of you I’d spell out your name A thousand times
