postcard material

My walls bleed the need

For some whore who’s good at providing company.

There’s a noose in every corner in every color.

We won’t die for our dignity but we will die for fashion

Because fucking is just making love without the passion.

All winter long I’ve dragged my heart through broken glass

Misery, sold for free, intoxicates me like a poisonous gas

This morning I looked into the mirror and saw a ghost

It was postcard material at the most

I’ll send you my dull, leaking heart wrapped

in all those pretty words you said to me

I’m am a giant inside a dying giant trapped

in all those fancy lights you showed to me

My smile looks a lot like a fist of the man that beats his wife

My spine looks a lot like a forgotten highway that has no life

It’s bland in this wasteland of dying Americans in other countries

You asked me to paint you something pretty and all I could think of

Was the way you said “you’re wasting your time, I don’t believe in love”
