-seek not ceremony -caked in rust -bitter portraits of failure fathers -carved by vindictive sons -the soil is restless -and bathed in blood -there comes a time when everyman must face what he's done -call it tough love -bite your tongue -in cathedral houses -where crimson hands couldn't build a home -or hold a hope -every cliché I know -desperation for affection -buried in your posturing -I know you know the difference -so fragile -so weak -every mourning song -don't mean a thing to them -another empty threat -follow through -the nerve of you -to ask me what I have to prove -every song of regret -will be your greatest yet -don't hold out for closure -give up every ghost -bury your wounded ego -the grave you dig is deep enough -we're no good at giving up -we can share the blame -it don't change a goddamn thing -if my forgiveness means nothing to you -your redemption means nothing to me

-you cry wolf again -all bend to your will -strip this part of me that lives without loyalty -and loves without symmetry -I hate you unconditionally rest assured -your word is cheap but not tasteless -don't count on me to provide -I lack the patience -placed our faith in medications -best intentions destined to betray us -so addicted to your weakness -you played the victim and basked in adoration -sun down on another loss -twilight of your wicked heart -black crown up on your cross -you are lord of sorrow -monarch of misery -blessed be this grief -as you dance amongst the graves -you spit your jealous grace -and everything of beauty wilts in your wake -I want to break you -like every promise -I want to hurt you -I want to crush you -for never trusting me -for all you've done to me -I want to watch you bleed

-blinded -too far gone to connect -my broken bones won't mend -they must know better than that -defeated as I have always been -because I knew in my heart that this would happen again -and it does -but I forgive my tongue -seeking forgiveness myself because I know what I've done -I have failed and I have tried again and I have failed a little less -I want love to crack my ribs -laughter shatter teeth and split wide my head -let me be pounded to dust by dreams again -let me bleed out on the edge of your kiss -I asked for this -precious -vicious -senseless -malice -glory be my fiery end -pressure put me in the dirt -open every wound for you -are you not entertained? -hunting for disaster only happiness can bring -liberate the body that the soul may finally sing -heart. fucking. broke.

-great silent distance -so violent -so present -with no time for rest -running on regret -driving these sleepless nights -dividing you and I -endless miles of misunderstanding -old friends are skeletons in the closet -I kiss them all goodbye -love letters in a bed of nails all penned in sacrifice and hopeful still -just souvenirs -forget me not -dead set on heaven -romantic rebellion -oh, dear -the beauty in our hideous ruin -my love, share my humble coffin -safely buried deep -dig to our destination - all or nothing -we paint imperfect landscapes -carefully crafted tragedy scripted how we'd fall to pieces -picked a losing battle -never a thought of consequence -i have no regret -please don't stop me -I hate everything I love -good and evil, braided be -something wicked this way comes

-falling from our highs into warm, familiar lows -closed stained glass eyelids -pastel kaleidoscope -we set a fire we can't outrun -the pounds of flesh that we owe will bleed us dry -if nothing but the very least of what we sow -my lungs are burning -passionately, I profane -I yearn for patience but urgency has taken hold of me -fear. pain. loss -all that we have shared -all the blood that brought us brotherhood -where there is fire and brimstone opposition -when the clouds are ash and the sea is risen -I’ll be opening old wounds -because I can't let go -terrified of everything that I have left to lose -always
