Incoherency in the key of E

I spend my days so angry lately.
I guess maybe frustration’s a better word, I just get so grumpy when I’m sleepy.
My eyes are burning as the world moves too fast beneath me.
You and I lay, barely breathing, in the shallow water of the evening,
“I want you to love me”
So I pull you closer to me and I kiss your lips so deeply,
“I’m not going anywhere, sweetie.”
It’s my honesty that always seems to get the best of me.
I’m an open book with transparent pages, everyone seeing through me, it’s so spooky.
I can’t make a move in this town with out feeling a little loopy.
The medication running through me is making the world a little blurry.
Sunlight keeps me blinded as it slowly heats the concrete and I sing:
“Never gain, never again, never again…”,
And I hum a little melody to accompany the broken chorus of my dry-throat.
With my voice cracking I sing:
“…never again.”
A year full of first Christmases and birthdays and Halloween parties I wasn’t dressed for.
I kicked the bucket like a summer storm.
I kicked the bucket like was what I lived for.
I can hear the rain pitter-pat outside and I hope for soaked bones under wet clothes.
Really I just want to be lying next to you, falling asleep in the humidity of the afternoon.
I’m leaving fingerprints on every inch of skin that I can get my hands on and filling my lungs with every scent that will make you linger long after I’ve gone.
I love you like a summer storm.
I love you like it is what I live for.
Waking up the world to the prettiest girl I know.
Her lips like a gulp of water to my own parched, unworthy mouth.
A smile like every sunrise or sunset that I missed when I was too busy trying to catch up on sleep.
She is beauty and I will do my best to love her as such.
She is beauty and I will do my best to love her as such.
