bleeding lips

please

i need to know

what was the purpose of your lie

for it only served to divide

i used to blindly love

and kiss with my eyes closed

but all these false stories

have come to remind me

of all the lacking in you and I

your adoration has turned to lust

with no true reason under the crust

can't you stop this

we're caving in

you're making me play hookey

just to pay for your sins

out on the street is where our love lies

supported by strange men

and blatant lies

where we once made love

has become your den

while i stand outside in the frozen rain

and wait for a man in a cab

to call my name

so I can show you once again

how much I loved you

throwing on the table

some dollar bills

you heal me with scabs from your losses and swoons
