(UN)SWEET
All these nothings
But they ain’t sweet
My finger has a ring
But I swear it ain’t me
Back and forth
Doing the same shit
Thought you were my true north
Don’t want this to be it
Keep saying we’ll try harder
Express our feelings
Keep wanting to barter
Life has been stealing
Away goes our patience
And so WE suffer
Check the surveillance
But we don’t want any other
Day to symbolize our cycles
Around and around
Errors and trials
But love keeps us bound
Is it enough?
Keep staying together
Even when it gets tough.
I guess that is forever.
Shouldn’t have to be this way
This trying is getting too old
Swear we argue every other day
In between we try to console.
Too hard for me to swallow
We can’t fix what’s too broken
Hand me a rum bottle
Let it drain and pour the coke in.
I drink to mask my pain
Push it away like I don’t care
Am I too vain?
Bottoms up and I’m not there.
Slowly facing my fears
Keep going at this rate
And I’ll wake without you here
Pray we never reach that date.
So we keep fighting
Hoping one day we’ll reach the end
Love keeps us together, it’s tightening
But hopefully it never breaks, only bends
To allow room to grow together
And never apart
I hope this is forever
You have my heart.
