I pray for cigarettes and coffee
Just something that reminds me of myself
These walls won’t stop haunting me
They've turned over all the photos on the shelves
My eyes are heavy and burning red
I'm swollen from my eyelids, from my pride
I can't sleep, I can't lay in that bed
Pushed all of our old furniture aside
Like a mess of hollow bones
Like the structure of this home
My marrow’s been sucked dry
There’s nothing left inside
Everyone I love is on fire, I’m on the safe side of that bridge
The flames burn off like my desire, I don’t know what I wanted from this
I dream for interventions
But the chairs would all be empty, even mine
It’s all a matter of perceptions
But it’s taken me to long now to define
Like speaking with a ghost
Like boarding the windows
My skin looks just as pale
My bones just as frail
Everyone I love is on fire, I’m on the safe side of that bridge
The flames burn off like desire, I don’t know what I wanted from this
The world will go on without me
I can find my own way to the grave
I find all of this astounding
But I know that I will never be saved
Like a ghost on the scene
Like the silence from the screen
The door is off of it’s hinge
Waiting for someone to come in
Everyone I love is on fire, I’m on the safe side of that bridge
The flames burn off like desire, I don’t know what I wanted from this
