lyrics

You know things about me that even I've forgotten.
I made some promises in poems and black boxes with no intentions to break them, despite past inclination.
We all make mistakes and I know you've made a few, And I can't help wondering if I was one of the few.
Because my heart is too fast and my tongue is two seconds too slow.
Does this sound familiar?

I still can't lie backwards on my bed without feeling your hot strawberry kiwi breath on my lips and your hands on my... hands.
This is why I go to the store sometimes just to buy what serves as a chaser for their messily mixed drinks that I don't even drink half the time.
And on that night, I hid that mixer right underneath Megan's bathroom sink.
How dare they drink the liquid remnants of my memory
that even I cannot keep the same way that I keep the remains of your love on my ceiling in that sea of faces.
And it's blood red and permanent.
In my heart and in my head and inside of your irises.
And on that one and only night that I allegedly saw you cry.
In the reclining chair, well I've been meaning to ask, did we share one more kiss?
Fleeting, you brushed your lips with my lips.
So fast, I thought a ghost running bases did it.
Can you please forgive me for each should be dead memory that I have revisited?
