Surprise

Your hands are made of soft regret and light kisses.
Your lips deliver the best lies and the boldest cries.
Your eyes are like leaves swaying in the wind not knowing where to land.

And it didn't surprise me that your feet carried fear.
But I still don't understand how an empty heart beats.

Guilt

Maybe I thought wrong.
Maybe I felt bad.

But thinking right and feeling good aren't for me.

Preconceived

I never doubted you.
But all of the sudden, I don't want you.

Wave

Your flight leaves in the morning.
Don't look back when you take off.

. . .because I'll be leaving you.

It's a lie.

When I tell you, "I don't love you", don't believe me.
Please don't believe me.

It's the farthest thing from the truth.

Slip Away

I won't be here in the morning.
And I'm not sorry.

Your arms would be a cold place to die.

Traveler

I don't tell people where I'm going.
I only tell them where I've been.

Give & Take

I used to think you were special.
Now I just think you're selfish.
