my first night in Paris

he's still breathing and drooling all over me

the book i borrowed lies back at me with your eyes

and i can't even read it through for fear of reading my own demise

the songs we've sung all just say your name now

i'm in a white room and it's full of you to the brim

i hate it

i'm in paris and we have never been and yet you haunt me and yet you're here

i am insane and i am alone and still you are behind me whispering

things you've said over and over

things ive only imagined but i know you've thought

in mauregard by night you float across the ceiling

the emptiness of obsession is all im feeling
