Tears
The tears ran down the windowpane
Just as the stars fell down
And lit up the ocean, fireworks
On a sea of my regret
And before the blazing flood
(that set the water alight)
(in a crescendo of fire)
I remember the sweet and sour moments
Before I ran away from you
But I see the world in black and white
Idols interchangeable with demons
I look on rats without disgust
(I envy their freedom)
(It must be a heaven)
(To simply not give a shit)

But I see the world in black and white
Idols interchangeable with demons

the repeated parentheticals are a little jarring, but hey maybe thats on purpose. Good ink. highly reminiscent of the horrible horrible reality of loss: it makes you wish you hadnt had what was there in the first goddamn place
