Slowly the pen touches paper in the guidance of the words that you write. Memories roll in of the things you once did. And who you had shared them with is somebody thinking of you. Did I bother telling you this with the words that cross teeth and jump lips. A poor choice of words in wanting to tell you anything. But words don't come with ease they're forever my hurt. Would it really matter if you were to count the days left with your hands. Your focus secure and the loves you left well. Smiles staged in photographs here until.... You....you left the light on. There's a chance I might have tripped girl. You were there to hold on. Ignoring the words of your obnoxious little brother. Kill or be killed spilled the words from your mother. I'll lay awake for a while. I'll leave the light on a while. You couldn't last a lifetime caught between here and the days of it. Carving her name across your arm with every wish it's hit or miss her. I told you so. I measure distance in lines departing the rest of my list. But you (you you) had better things to do (X2). Liar liar liar liar (5x). Ignoring the words of your obnoxious little brother. Kill or be killed spilled the words from your mother. I'll lay awake for a while. I'll leave the light on a while. You couldn't last a lifetime caught between here and the days of it. Carving her name across your arm with every wish it's hit or miss her. I told you so. I measure distance in lines departing the rest of my life. If you get put to sleep like an old dog you're better off if you get put to sleep. I've been cautious with the words I extend. Allow this year before the world starts to end. Your father's dead he passed in his sleep and I woke to the sounds of her crying (X3). Pray for us all...
