never mind, i imagine him saying, you know i lied. you were never that beautiful. he called me stunning and i wanted to say i loved him. i wanted to say there was no mortal above him. goddess, he said. -- i'm seventeen and unfulfilled, running from myself, but however fast i am i still can't get away from this place, from me. self-destructing souvenirs in my head why won't they burn away already there's something empty about this bed and my heart is growing heavy -- i don't want to treasure you. diamonds are always cutting me to shreds, but they're never on my hands pretty boys, they never take me to bed. they just say hello to say goodbye.
