Lover take me home.
Turn off the lights,
Take off my clothes
and climb in my ribcage.
Kiss my tears away
and suffocate my pain with your body.
Turn off the lights.
Make me feel loved
While I pretend you are someone else.
While I pretend I am someone else.
Play music in the background
So I can fall asleep to something other than my own cries.
Turn off the lights.
Try to hold me together,
While I try to forget what’s tearing me apart.
Turn off the lights
So you can stop feigning interest
So you can climb on top of me
And forget my sweet sad disposition.
Turn off the lights.
Focus on my body, and not my mind,
Because you forgot why I was sad.
But you remember that I like to be bitten
Turn off the lights.
So I can’t see you when you leave,
And you can forget my face one second sooner.
Turn off my light.
