What I can't say I align into lines Because you, again, give me the cold shoulder. And these words, how they smoulder. So it's just me and the night And whatever music feels right. Alabama Shakes hits the spot. I can't count how many times I've told this curious tale of a boy who fell in love with a girl just to have it all end in tears.
A few days pass and I'm in my room on a chair Music playing though enveloped in silence And the blue-green walls And stained wood furniture Start to drip their colors and I do too My world is a monochrome setting Like a sitcom in 1942. If only you would walk through That door and these colors restore For you are the paintbrush of god And life without you is a bore.
It's been days and I wonder If another one with a silver tongue Spoke of your beauty- Your eyes and how you part your hair Would you listen eagerly? Can you easily forget me? Would you buy in to his success And how much he is a better man?
