Evening's last drink
Though memory has waned as the night progressed
And the destruction was done
One drink turned into four
turned into eight
and somewhere between us there was twenty
We watched the rest integrate while you played coy
Always the gentleman
Words, though tinged with a bitter tang, dribbled forth like honey. Sweet and thick, clinging onto my heart.
So instead of calling it quits we kept on.
More drinking and talking and then it clicked.
But there is always the complication
She was happy enough to watch from the sidelines
Happy enough to fuck someone else.
Content to deal with anything, anything but you falling for me.
So I wake up next to you, dead and alive for the heart beating in my chest isn't mine but yours...
Reality sinks in, and still I see the love in your eyes.
No Regrets. Only obstacles .
Can we surpass this mess or will we be dragged into the flames?
All I know is I don't love you. I'm in love with you.
And the destruction was done
One drink turned into four
turned into eight
and somewhere between us there was twenty
We watched the rest integrate while you played coy
Always the gentleman
Words, though tinged with a bitter tang, dribbled forth like honey. Sweet and thick, clinging onto my heart.
So instead of calling it quits we kept on.
More drinking and talking and then it clicked.
But there is always the complication
She was happy enough to watch from the sidelines
Happy enough to fuck someone else.
Content to deal with anything, anything but you falling for me.
So I wake up next to you, dead and alive for the heart beating in my chest isn't mine but yours...
Reality sinks in, and still I see the love in your eyes.
No Regrets. Only obstacles .
Can we surpass this mess or will we be dragged into the flames?
All I know is I don't love you. I'm in love with you.
