...and I'm taken back at the thought that this is what i wanted, I'm pulling arrows out of wounds already healed. In the end it's all the same: I fail to save her. The newspaper read "fell short again," we'd fashioned locks to keys I chose to throw away, all to spend eight days remembering the car, the time, the kiss, and how little it meant. Oh my god what have I done? Where we reconnect, can I catch you sometime? But my arms aren't worth the fall, they're not worth it.
2.
Why are you so all alone? Everyone is fucking dead and conversation's such a goddamn lobotomy. Your friends are dead. You know that's not true.
3.
I haunt my own sleep at night: smug smile and a drink in hand. You look nervous, your eyes dart left to right. You step slowly and I can see your heartbeat. You look nervous, your eyes dart left to right. I can see you slipping slowly. The world won't turn a different way without you. Everything you love would be the same without you. In the four years past, I can't even recognize you. Have another drink, get fucked, get gone.
4.
Remember October, when a cut on the arm formed bonds? And then 'til August, we'd never wonder where we'd lay our heads. Remember when we said "best friends"? What have we said since then? No longer even family, not even fucking close. We've been thrown outside for the window and it's getting cold. The chords in our throats grow silent, grow frozen. She stands barefoot in the snow, from her eyes I was visibly shaken. We built up our brick walls, steadfast and straight-faced. You can't have us back this time, so why even fuckin try? You can't see past my failures. Goodbye, you won't see me around.
