i was a king // if it’s any consolation/ i’ve taken your advice/ you said breathe/ steady your feet/ and work on sleeping without the lights/ on the subject of seperation/ it seems you’re doing fine/ you found friends who look better on your arm/ and live life on your time/ and that’s just fine/ and giving up/ is a skill i’m not familiar of/ and the taste of blood on my tongue/ when i wake up/ is a staple of this month/ and i feel like nowhere/ and it’s nothing real/ no it’s nothing real anymore/ it seems so important/ but only while it’s happening/ til it’s gone/ on the subject of reparation/ i think we’re too far gone/ so put to the cigarette to your lip and light it/ and hope like hell that we die young/ if you wonder how i’m doing/ i’m the same as since you left/ i’m still too intense and over sensistive/ and live inside my head/ i’m trying not to/ til you wake up/ in a parking lot/ and you watch your hero fall apart/ he says, “I was a king ‘til they poisoned the throne, and they left me to die in my room all alone. Left my best lines to live at the tip of my tongue. Afraid of god finding out i was someone they’d known. drink to the hope that each drop hits my lungs and i drown in the last thing that made me feel calm.”/
