resentment #9
01:13

|

we are both guilty
of our crimes to each other
the love wasn’t empty
but it coerced the crimes
I wrote down my resentments
you fought fire with your flame
I handed you my forgiveness
you hurled at me the blame
our dream never made it
to the tip of my tongue
my lips couldn’t shape it
the cure for our love
so let’s split this final check
it wasn’t five, even four stars
now I know what I don’t want
it’s a relief to finally know what we are

the speed of pain

the wicker basket on
the mantle piece beside the framed picture
of you and me
it looks like someone else’s dream
it was four months ago
you signed your name above my name
and now I do not know
if we can ever be the same
no I don’t
a coffee coaster cracked
one more thing we’ll never get back
it’s scattered on the floor
I guess I’ll pick up what remains
I tried to let you go
I tried to balance on a blade
I smiled through it all
a velvet curtain for the pain
in your arms is the
loneliest place in the world
you’re the coldest room in the house
I don’t want to live here anymore
no I don’t
my love was unconditional
under the right conditions
we were moving at the speed of our pain
I always kept my faith in us
I just keep it at a distance
you look up at me and sigh a question
ask me if I regret it
no I don’t

i'm rubber, you're glue
03:38

you were stranded on the interstate bitching
about how your car broke down in a ditch and
you still found a way to make me a villain
if hate made gold then you’d make a killing
you were cast out by your sister, your brother
your stubbornness only added your mother
from your verbal abuse, I know I’ll recover
because now you’re the glue, and I am the rubber
it must be shit to be you
you had me on the interstate singing
Leonard Cohen & Old Bob Dylan
the pedal to the floor was the limit
7:34 was the minute
you finally let me out of your prison
I still pay the rent, but now I’m free living
took a left on delmar drive, had a vision
that I am the one that you will be missing
it must be shit to be you
everyone has a little love tucked into their heart
everyone has a little sun to dismantle the dark
not everyone is strong enough to pick their pride apart
not everyone is brave enough to find out what they are
there aren’t enough numbers
in the world
to count on you
there were never enough numbers
in the world
to count on you
it must be shit to be you

I’ll keep the house
you keep the bed
I’ll the hope
you keep the dread
I’ll keep the lamp
with the rip in the shade
you keep the one
with the noticeable stain
I’ll keep the couch
we recently bought
and you keep me out of your thoughts
the further I get away from you
the easier it is to have a clear view
I’ll take the high road to the bridge
you take the gravel road by the ditch
I’ll suck it up and I’ll wish you the best
you’ll twist my words up in your head
to be something that I never thought
so you can keep up your facade
the further I get away from you
the easier it is to have a clear view
I kept an open heart
you couldn’t do the same
the things you can’t control
you tried to anyway
I’ll keep an open mind
I’ll take whatever blame
you’ll take what you don’t mind
a way to never change
you left me on delmar drive
with the rent not paid at all
I used to not see you
my eyes closed, I ignored it all
you keep the lies you thought up
in the dark spot if your heart
I’ll keep my eyes open
now I see you, I know what you are
