You’re all I ever wanted.
I risked my life for you.
I know I shouldn’t be responding,
but it pulls me back to when you almost died.
Would this be the last time?
The last high
So I answer every time.
That you hit my line
It was confusing, so consuming —
watching you slowly pass away while staying physically.
Now we’re stuck on the rerun of
episode eight
same ending.
You said you were doing better, you were doing so well,
now you’re freezing cold again —
Can tell you’re not eating, and haven’t slept
Your body’s cold again.
And you promised me you wouldn’t burn down the house again.
Just to keep warm
You said the matches were for someone else,
but I smelled smoke; then I saw the flames.
I watched it burn from the street.
Cause you too my key
And it’s such a shame
Too bad I don’t live there anymore —
I can’t be the one to save you from the rest of your life
You wanna talk cause you know will be the last time
I handed you a match, you didn’t put it down —
flames creeped up your arms.
You promised you’d blow it out.
Now there’s crazy in your eyes
Strangers in your bed
Self medicating until you are dead.
I was an angel in disguise.
Saved you from your own demise
But This time it’s my fault.
I used to think I made you slip into graves —
I was mistaken before; the murder wasn’t mine.
Until I gave you eight.
Until we did a line
This time the murder’s on me,
even if I killed you indirectly.
