That night was the best and worst night of my life
You helped me up off the floor
Both literally and metaphorically
There was something forceful to the way you said my name
When you walked into the room witnessing me unzip my veins

I don't remember what happened after the moment when you rushed over to me
I think I passed out from blood loss
I might have fallen faint from emotion overdose
All I remember is waking up on a couch in your arms covered in bandages

You told me that you'd be there with me forever
And that night was the best and worst part of my life
Because for a while that was true
And my veins remained untouched
And then you left me

I don't really remember what happened after you left
But I'm still here today
I mean I guess you could say that I'm physically here
But my mind and my spirit always drift off to search for you
And they scream out "you promised"

You see when my spirit and mind leave me
I can't control my physical self very well
And my physical self has the tendency to search for the inner workings of my veins
Just as my mind and spirit search for you
(My physical self is looking for you too
It knows that you're somewhere in there)

That night was the best and worst part of my life
For many ludicrous reasons
The funniest thing about it all
Is that I believed a beloved liar would keep my veins mended
