We stumble around the dance floor,
drinking up every sip of encouragement
we could
His soft hands
brush against my lips
I know exactly what he wants
It's the same routine
we fight and then fuck
this shit gets old
I inhale, wishing I have enough liquid courage in me
enough to tell him I don't want to be touched
I want him, but I'm tired of fucking
I want to know what's on his mind
What takes up space in his fucking brain
damn
is it so hard to talk to me?
If these walls could speak
it would be more than
you ever did
It's the same thing day after day
Smoke, drink, fight, fuck
I want more
you deserve more
we deserve so much more
I hope you finally found your more,
I hope you left that dance floor
the one where you danced around
the truth, hid behind the excuses
I now carry with me a heavy debt of instability
I am rebuilding, becoming
more than just a fuck
more than wasted time
spent on you
on them
on every fuck that has left me feeling
WASTED, DRUNK,
absent minded, lack of enlightenment
used and excused
I'm done with the abuse
the self harm excuse
I hide in you
