I will paint a white silhouette of innocence around your eyes

you will stay safe and well gaurded between this black barrier of lies

pour a couple more shots of whiskey in my mouth and I will tell you my story through this never ending high
we can speak of all the goodbyes
and the never ending hellos
life, and moisty white sand in between our toes

how I left a quarter of my heart and a couple of limbs in that blue and yellow taxi back home in my original country

and how everytime I drink water in the morning I gag
I'll remind myself of that time in highschool if I told you, hm
you would laugh

our laughs come and go either way are split in half

I loved the smell of fresh orange peels on your fingers
did you have to let it linger

step outside Im on your front porch
half the grass is dead the sky is blue with a few scattered clouds
and theres a rainbow on it written
the dice never rolled on anything more than one
I have finished this chapter of my life, Im done
midnight prague
