Deer in the forest Woods of my life It was the Closest I'd ever been to love A fleeting glimpse Shadows about the grey tents Words caught on a hook That shouldn't have been spoke Into the ears that we pierce On the street below the balcony Or something that was in the way
I'm tired of losing this battle The enemy at the gates Behind me is crying Because I can't be saved
But,
I'm not afraid of the ghost The ghost is not afraid of me I am the ghost that you fear You are the one That I must ****, dear
I hate it The days in between The milestones That have been carved Out of my bones I hate it
When the shade hits my back When can we go home?
I'll phone your best friend and Tell her that I've always loved you But her image has since disappeared I lost you, out in the wilderness The memory is not so clear Anymore
Why didn't you come back? Was his flesh enough to fill the hole In your little life? The cut across my neck Bleeds and pours and sings for more Of the taste of rust (iron blood) From the knife I once gave you there
So why don't you just **** me off, dear? Like a deer in the forest Hiding in the woods of my lie The creator Is nauseous I drank too much last night
Insomnia goes hand in hand with amnesia What was I talking about? Again. . .
