lyrics

(R. Vena)

I’m fighting for the memories in the back of my mind

Lost in dull retrieve of a heart dimming from bright

The latter of this life leaves me with bare bones to wear

There’s no heart upon these sleeves nor a single tear to spare


The glass cracks at the windows edge when I tell myself it’s still okay

My hands shake at the fucking thought of all the love I let slip away

I’m taking back these tired words in hope it all might end today

I’ll carve my heart into this fucking wall and let it all come crashing down on me


I’m throwing knives at all your wounds just to remind myself I’m still alive

All alone at night, head in hands (the hope and how I let it die)

Every chance we take is one we’ll later fucking throw away

It’s forever better to burn out than to fade away


You held that picture in front of my face and you asked me

“Will this ever be us someday?”

And I whispered back so softly,

“Some things never fucking change…”
