Allow me to dissemble
Myself in this beer glass
Where I pour
Everything I've left of you.
And that's a lot!
You sit there asking me
Who's this about
I laugh
You dismantle my world
With two words:
"I know".
I spill my glass, the feelings
Flow like rivers.
You know?!
I cut myself in the shards
Of your sharp words.
My skin is thin,
You know...
You stuck your fingers
In the plugs of my brain
Short-circuit!
Rewind, repeat
"I know".
The ebb and flow of my breath
At a standstill
I've forgotten my survival instincts.
You cry
In an attempt to refill my broken glass
You know
How I never get drunk
And yet I keep drinking
I drain you.
In my arms
Rattling
The earthquake
Started in your core
Ready to crumble
I hold you so tight
In an attempt to stop you from coming undone
I am what you need
Though never what you want.
I know.
