Advice from a friend
You can
Open your arms
to the winds of the night
Drown yourself
In the depths of the past
Wave your hands
On the side of the curb
But it will never
bring you stillness
bring you love
bring you home
Stop dreaming of first loves
Your honeymoon was
Never going to happen
That first kiss was day one
Out of one thousand
In a countdown to heartbreak
Don’t you dare tattoo his name
On your untouched skin
He’s going to leave
Get ahold of your vertigo
Find yourself a compass
And drive far away
The fall IS bad
And down IS down
He was never going to stay
A broken battery doesn’t do much good
To someone who runs fine on their own
Pick up the clothes you left on the floor
And forget
Let it hit you
That he’s lying so beautifully
Next to me
