When I put out my stale headache cigarettes in your ashtray and I put out in that tainted-with-cheap-*****-cracked-lip-kisses way that I do so well
Then lay my head down next to you on your worn-out-*****-box-spring-no-covers-only-refuge and you feel secure like everything lasts forever
Keep in mind that old adage that's as tired as I am about keeping friends close and enemies closer
And hey Darling?
This ain't going to end with one of those awful deus ex machina dream wake ups
This isn't the dream we're living so let's make the best of this disposable outcome get some sleep and do it all over again tomorrow in that over-indulged-but-still unhappy-first-world-prison-paradise kinda of way that we do so well
