I feel your arms when I listen to my favorite songs, I hear your voice when I look at the moon and I see your eyes whenever I close mine. Why can’t you be the one to kiss me goodnight rather than my crinkling sheets? And why isn’t your voice singing me to sleep rather than these broken records? How is it that you’re so full when I’m as hollow as bone? Can you teach me your ways, because I’m gasping for air as you swim in an ocean of luxury and I’m sick of drowning.

Broken Records
I feel your arms when I listen to my favorite songs, I hear your voice when I look at the moon and I see your eyes whenever I close mine. Why can’t you be the one to kiss me goodnight rather than my crinkling sheets? And why isn’t your voice singing me to sleep rather than these broken records? How is it that you’re so full when I’m as hollow as bone? Can you teach me your ways, because I’m gasping for air as you swim in an ocean of luxury and I’m sick of drowning.
