love wraps its fingers around
and suffocates me
its simply suicide
happy as it may be
as you hold my hand
im afraid to let go
you sometimes squeeze to hard
but i never have the nerve to say no
and i love you
your brain, your thoughts
your everlasting beauty
its a net in which i'm caught
we're perfect for each other
because we both need something better
we're perfect for each other
because we dont want that to be
and i die in your arms
likely by your hand
but i say sorry anyways
and say sorry again
i always say it-
and now you wouldnt know what to do
but i know, we're predictable
my death would end up killing you too
it would swallow you whole-
its just that no-one will say
what will destroy
both of us one day
both girl and boy
the words are
i love you, i need to leave
wake up the next morning
what comes is all but relief
and we realize
not far down our diverging roads
that we love our eyes
and everybody knows
we're perfect for one another
fucked up as we are
we're perfect for each other
we're each others exploding star
beautiful, complimentary
i am perfect for you-
you are perfect for me-
but, so unstable we explode.
