Everyday I wake up feeling the same
I watch the world fade away
Every night I pretend I'm okay
I would cry if I saw your face
Today I caught myself looking out the window
All my symptoms felt like the past
And for a second, I thought, our love is dangerous
I miss the way it was
Once bitten, twice shy
Europe makes me nostalgic
And I can taste cherry and vodka on my lips
It feels like I'm stuck in a cage
Throwing life away
I think we're going insane
In a rabbit hole of self-hate
History is a pool I swim in
Hedonism floating through my veins
Insatiable in every way
I can hardly focus now procrastinating
Leaves me cold, I smoke my cigarette in the rain
Praying for gold on my knees
With every hangover, it feels like a breeze
I will never love again.

Nicely worded and organized well timed with an ending that leaves the feeling of hopelessness. Well done.
Thank you!
But you will love again... and again... and again. But it will hurt I suspect. You drag the depths of your soul and heart to sing these songs. I've heard you sing so many of them, the effect of each one is often a gut punch or a hollow feeling, but the cumulative effect of them is actually so beautiful I cannot describe it. You are the nightingale smoking a butt outside my window as it sings its little ass off to me.
I can always rely on you to put a smile on my face with your words, Jarcher. You never fail.
The Brussels dream has produced a monster !
Me or you haha?
