it's 2am somewhere and I'm thinking of you

1. You’re in my bones

The air was wrong
I could feel you there
raging

I lay in the grass
waiting

I am not the apocalypse

2. We were the perfect
mutual self-destruction

I don’t want to be the reason
you kill yourself

I don’t hate myself enough
to fuck you up anymore

3.  I couldn’t be what you wanted
so I became what
I hope
you needed

4. No
is not a simple world
while love
is the most complicated
of all words

There is nothing I can say
that I haven’t said before

I love you
and you know it

5. It’s not a secret
I fear that you hate yourself
more than you love me

6. Sometimes I wish
I was an angel
then maybe
I could save you
