Blissth

let me be the drug

that you use to fall in love

that heroin that keeps you warm enough

let me sink to your skin

like water in a wound

stitch me up when you are dark

i want to be the water in your lungs

let's you know you were drowning

the last sip of gin you can't drink

let me hide in your neck

with every regret

to practice swallow before you go to bed

and why do i still compare everyone that I love

to the way i loved you?

i can still hear you sing

but you'll never sing for me

my eyes will continue to sink

i wasn't built to exist

these ghost limbs were never taught to swim

you'll always be like a nightmare to me

and i'm always waiting for sleep
