With a Cold, Life Extinguishing Elegance
Danny Gulino
What, what do you want me to say?
What would you have me do?
Must I, must I
Must I rip out my own tongue?
Must I deafen these ears, stop an uncomfortable
Conversation before it ever begins?
Must I tear out my eyes to stop myself
From watching your constant self-mutilation?
Excuses
Lies
Excuses
I swallowed them whole
I swallowed them whole
I swallowed them whole
I swallowed them whole
Must I bite my lip?
A river of blood
To choke back the criticism
You will surely hear
You can't stop
I won't stop
Excuses and lies
I swallowed them whole
I swallowed them whole
I swallowed them whole
I swallowed them whole
Oh, godless day with no Sun
To see that I've gone
And the night will not miss
The breath from my lungs
It just moves on
