oh, say, say, say.
ink-stained fingers trace the leylines over your heart,
and I’m searching out the pathways
to a place I never thought we’d find.
I wake up to a new summer,
push away from the perfection of your kiss.
in imaginary landscapes, you’re pulling me close.
you never did let me leave
and I’ll never change. So stay the same, all monochrome and mine;
blindfold maps, and the echo of my words in solitude smiles.
oh, say the words, say all we never could.
get lost in simple syllables and never let her go.
I’ll turn away forever; because I’m holding out today.
I wish that I could call out; such plaintive cries;
an ivory albatross, screaming for you.
I know you’d only shoot me down and curse yourself to my disease.
I feared the return, lost myself to the easy cure
and memories of possible tomorrows,
played out in the words you’d never say.
the tension stretches into silence, and we’d fall apart.
I’ll wait for you to speak, and you wait for me to break.
always watching the horizons, weather eyes scraping along maps
leading you to them, away from me.
black ink lines leaking from my skin to paper,
to coil around your hands and bind you in.
wait. they don’t love you like I love you.

but, yeah. Completely inspired by the amazing, amazing song Maps by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs (love it. So much.) and a painfully perfect dream.
and it was a dream that actually came true. ♥
