Building A Cement Corner Bath Tub

Empty City

  

It’s getting colder by the second
My heart can’t deal with all that pain
It’s getting colder, stupid island
Nowhere to hide from pouring rain
My black and white love left me naked
In pool of mud, in pool of blood
Dark clouds over my eyelashes
Hard fists imprinted on my mind

I played with blades and cut you open
I won the fight, i got the prize
I left the empty city rotten
I carved myself out of your past

I saw a house with a fire
A place for someone to call home
He got me sad, insane and tired
He made me happy, safe and warm
I loved him cos he sang me stories
He painted world to match my eyes
He noticed feathers on my shoulders
He fed me smoke spiced up with lies

I played with blades and cut you open
I won the fight, i got the prize
I left the empty city rotten
I carved myself out of your past

And now that silence’s screaming deadly
Abandoned roads kill my thoughts
I’m lying down until he gets here
My lover singing with gunshots
