Remember when we had nothing?
Remember when all I had was you?
Remember how I used to scrape in the keys,
Just to hear the engine fall flat?
Of course you don’t
You were chasing finer linens
I was chasing more dividends,
For us

Remember how I used to scream blood?
Remember when you turned blue?
You turned blue and looked at my cuts,
Then looked away as I turned white
I remember the cracked mirror
The cracked mirror that showed the real me
You looked at me and saw The Devil
I accepted my scorched skin long before you wouldn't

Lucifer fought for his people,
Even as he fell from grace
And now I live in the hell I created,
Happy
Learn what to let go of, and find something to hold onto. Never give up. Never.
