it's strange where I stored away all my loyalties, you think you can bring someone back with courage or bravery but you're only being a child, really,
i threaded them through each vertebrae and stained every moment with ink, every truck-ride soaked in an alan jackson song
I don't want to haunt you, but at night if you are alone or with a dead arm beneath a pretty girl, deeply introspective with the moon on your face and you begin to tear into yourself as if something is lost or fading
all you'll find is a rung of brass keys where I told myself i could where no other woman has been, and she certainly won't,
if storms are named after people and every place is a concentrate of you and me then i have saturated the walls in your peace and strength with all my keys and loyalties hung in the places you go to find yourself.
