Won’t you please take
This ache
From my chest
Brandished by you
Perhaps I had become content
With my emptiness
A deadly deal swallowed
With the pill that was blue
Red red red
Like a rush to the head
As you frayed at the seams
Of all that was true
Did you think I was waiting?
Endlessly anticipating
A vision, a dream, desired unseen
Painted by you
Leave me forlorn
As night turns to morn
Where silence becomes eerie
With the ache that you grew
Tell me of happy ever after
Where tears roam wild like laughter
And fleeting fancies whisper
What I already knew
On waking I’m aching
I’m ready for taking
Left lingering and shaking
Brandished by you
