Instrumental
by V. Blakeit's a matter of timing:
the words to all the songs we sing
won't end up mattering
when you can take a pen to a map
and circle a moment that
a fire stopped dancing
under the smoke.
my love will break yours,
like i told you it would,
as the lies that sustain us
cease to entertain us,
and we sink like lonely
sirens into the sea.
you'll catch yourself thinking
that you're better off
than me.
verse-chorus-verse and repeat. 07/07/2016 Posted on 07/07/2016
