Please don’t leave me terrified
In the middle of the room
Wondering if it’s over
All over way too soon
I think you say you love me
With a gun between your teeth
Threatened by the idea
Of not knowing what it means
I taste the metal stardust
Bullet casing on the ground
Was it my imagination
Or did you just let me down
Maybe I’m supposed to
Trust the words you say
But what if all I’ve ever known
Is the other way
The sideways look of hope dear
The subtle prayer for sound
The dense amalgamation
Of me letting you down
For I’m the one who’s running
Who’s truly someone else
Who fakes a life so full
Of dreams
I just can’t stand it
How
Can I ever fill
The void deep
In my gut
The one that knows
That I’ll fuck up
Before you
Take
The
Shot
