kiss me quick
before i forget you
as i'm not too sure
if i want to let you go

change my mind
as you do so easily
just your eyes
no drugs are needed

and have you seen yourself lately
i keep finding myself asking for help. and that's fine and i'm fine
but save me since i just lied

and hand me a rose
toss me the thorns
since i'm used to this

and daddy got me
used to the smell of alcohol
and cigarettes

and how easy it could be
to smoke my life away
so humorously

while everyone stares
since when did they become so mindless
but you don't care

and
and
and
and

hold my hand please
for time is slipping away
but as your fingers slide against mine
i'm still not sure i want you to stay

how beautiful it is to feel so strongly
about alternative universes
and how bold of me to cry so weakly
in my mind
i guess i'm too busy
with the things that i make up
that now real life is passing
outside my dream, since i just can't wake up
