Light Years

Baby, can’t hide from me

Baby, can’t die for me

Baby, I tried, can’t describe what’s inside of me

Baby, I’m high, but this wire act’s tiring

Losing my balance

Illusion of challenge

I grew while secluded

And looted the palace

Two step with a groove that is rooted in malice

Saw truth in the route that was brutally savage

You neuter me, callous

Your ruby red lipstick, it sticks to the chalice

Inflicted the damage without lifting hands

When you pick at the strands of a male it can feel like a mallet

Impaling my palate, the taste of impatience

I chased it away with the trace of embraces

The shape of your face stays wherever my place is

Whatever the pace is I’m taking a spaceship

Those light years are nothing

When floating through darkness with nothing else coming

I say that I love you

The sound doesn’t travel

A triple word score

But the game wasn’t scrabble

A crippling war

Where my brain came unraveled

A rift in the lore

Where we changed up what matters

So plain with the patterns

But aimed for your bladder

Cuz pissing you off is the strangest example of stating my passion

You stave off, distracting

Behave like I’m brave, but the rage is reacting

I won’t play this maze, take this blade and I hack it

Said fuck the theatrics, I’m done going backwards

Embracing my fate

While I’m scraping the plate

I could offer you dates

With the lobster and steak

Use the properest posture

And hear what you say

But you’re still an imposter

Who prospers in shame

No Oscar’s for faking

Just hearts for the breaking

The odds in your favor

Still odd that you savor

And ogle the razor

That’s dripping in crimson, an obvious flavor

You snap into slim jim, a macho man banger

Guess you’re the head honcho, the capo for claiming

You’ll say that I’m tonto, don’t want no explaining

I’ll leave you like pronto, and you’ll stay the same

See that nothing is changed

Just the stuff’s rearranged

All the bluffing and huffing and puffing to strain

All it does is destruct, digging ruts in our way

I could say you’re a slut, but it’s lust that you crave

You’re combustious, babe

And as much as I hate

I still love you the same

I will love you the same

Putting no one above you

My love doesn’t change

My sun and my rain

My wonder and pain

The one fucking woman I wanted in vain

A looks all it took, had your hooks in, I wanted in vein

I want it again

Til I can’t take the sickness

Addicted affliction, and you’re the prescription

No good for each other, but when do we listen?

A life lived without you’s a boring existence

The story unfinished

Yeah, sure, we diminished

But everything’s shorter the older we’re getting

Too bold to admit it

Too cold, let me hold you a minute

Let go when I get it
