Bow Ties and Arrows

"Well it's getting colder and you're getting distant
And I just keep thinking that I never meant it to be like this"

The pain fades with time, but you still creep up my spine and fill my mind. I hear words, not voices. The repercussions you brought have left my head spinning and my neck in a terrible pain. I remember exactly what you said but never knew why you said it. I'm such a "nice boy". You were so damn cute that night. And the whites in your lies matched the whites in your eyes.

My weakness is strong. It is stronger than this medicine. Laughter is the strongest thing I could find, but I think I need some narcotics. Time is too slow for me. Damn the irony.

"What a bunch of fools we lovers are."

I wanted a bountiful harvest, but you just wanted a taste of forbidden fruit. You fiend. You're fading away and I know that's exactly what I need but exactly what I lament. My head tells my arm to raise in a final goodbye but can't stop my heart from extending my hand in a futile attempt to hold on to you. How pathetic.

"Maybe I fell to fast
Maybe I pushed you away
Now you're gone and I'm afraid
That you're never coming back this way again"

I swear I'm enjoying myself... I just have a chronically broken heart.
