1.
my best foot not forward I've got a wall, you found a gate and slipped in so detected with a perfect smile and a pint of golden paint you met your mom for tea you said you baked a brie and you said you felt a little fancy was that the first time that you lied to me but I wouldn't know until the next morning things picked up rather quick and I should have picked up on it but you spoke of telescopes and lights and laughed at growing up you claimed to like the way I think I thought you thought a lot like me and by the time we murdered God I couldn't get enough but now I see you were only real to me and mark my words I'll be the sweetest man you'll never meet and I'll live desperately but not as desperate as you seem and I'll wait patiently for one who thinks how I thought you think
2.
only three days, but I got tied to an anchor with clandestine twine but I'm not dead I know that I gotta start an argument but not tonight I'll drink instead I think that you'll ignore me when you see I see or you'll share another story that excuses you for seducing me just a matter of time obsessing over a desperate need to justify why to stay your radiant smile is not enough to cancel out the times you lied already I'm just a little lonely, but I've learned to be and you act like I'm the only pair of eyes you need And I'm just a little lonely, but I've learned to be and you act like I'm the only pair of eyes you need but you've got three

by now you know that I'm dangerously sensitive and your name'll get scribbled in ink from an overworked pen it's there I'll find relief from that Saturday morning when you stopped responding after I shared this sentiment my mind rewinds, your mind's not bothering I won't let you forget if you'd like to forget now I've got one verse down and I've just started I was a collective sea of dread while I was bolted to my bed and you were all the pills I couldn't take when I had nothing left 'cause in the off chance that I might not be present in my head you reeled me in, you threw me out so I just wrote some songs instead I'm not I'm not dead, I got fucked in the head and fooled once again with my only regret being we never met I was a barren, wasted lie tied taught to anchor's black night a shovel from within an architect's demise another useless friend that you wrapped yourself right into secured at neither end you're a sociopath with a pregnant smile ~ I know you're cold I'll freeze for eternity three lives to hold you'll strain to remember me I'll starve myself you'll bake yet another brie I'm told my gold has no place in your paintings I sent photos of me as a boy dressed up in plain down to my tiny toes you told me that those men were your quote unquote big bros I'm not that dumb and I know that you're cold I'll freeze for only six days never told that my gold had no place in your paintings I'll make what's best for me

I stretch to see there just might be life inside of you is what you need what I can't keep myself from giving you? with pain replete I kept speaking even when I knew you're in too deep a shit-stained sea that I can't swim through with you I had a dream of listening to Norah sing with you about such things as Seattle's spring and tiny rain boots but it's just me laying all alone and listening to myself sing I can't pretend that's all I'll ever need three lives to lead through bastard's teeth who really oughta know instead you breed three lives beneath those stained glass windows just down the street from where my knees turned to black and blue these words shall clean and my peace with what you did to me just when I think my work's complete and I can forget you I pace that street and watch my knees turn blue
