HOPELESS
You sit, numbed from your drugs
I stand, numbed from a different kind
you're alive, but your eyes contain no life
then the tears start to fall
and suddenly it's all my fault.
HOPELESS
Your words sting, leave my skin burning red
an hour later you're done screaming
you said something about how it's my job to make you feel better
okay then, follow me
would it make you feel better
to watch me make myself bleed?
HOPELESS
Yes, I hurt myself
but only because you pushed me to it
I tell you this, and you go off again
a few bottles and a broken coffee table later,
we're still HOPELESS
Kind of scattered, but that's kind of the point.
