Tourniquet
Waiting on a heartache, constrict me please
Make it all feel so slow like a church organ haunting pulse
Waiting on a dead poem, words etched in my skin before I leave
Moving back in forth in the movements of my mind
My only sick repulse you won't welcome what you find
Welcome me to this world, a torn blanket sown anew
If the quilt bared our love, should it be sown before we're through
How can I find you when you never wanted to let me know
How much you loved the spotlight, and hated every single show
I inhale on asphyxiation your essence like cyanide
Quickest way to an epitaph when I know I've died
I can't say goodbye to you, just to say so long
No need to shout after me, just a whisper I'll be gone
