The rain is my own heartbeat
as I walk all of the old streets
and fade into the concrete
It was not meant to alarm you
when the stars aligned in your favour.
And I'll pull this card from out my sleeve
to show you I'm a cheater
and the devil thats inside of me could beg
for nothing sweeter
Sit me on a long beach
fill me with your concrete
lies and stories
that have no end
and no point to make it to
rob me of the soul I bargained
and take the smile from off my face
mount it on your wall
to remind your guests to wipe their feet
Kiss my head and brush my cheek
paint a portrait with your feet
its not as if you havent
walked all over me before
frame me, give me a backbone
etch a look onto my face
pour some sweat into my pores
and inflate my lungs
to breath again
Write a letter and leave it beside
a blanket and some tissues
sign it with your name
so the next person will know who did the work
