• No matter how we hurt,
    These sad games we play alone,
    Screaming and redeeming,
    The blatant echo of our monotone,

    See their blunt stares for,
    Reach for a whiskey on the rocks,
    They're in denial, favorite aisle,
    Calling God, our love so unorthodox,

    Too many dried tears so,
    Sometimes your cold arms shiver,
    Don't break, it's no mistake,
    Cling close together while we quiver,

    Our fragile ears will bleed,
    Can't we turn this screaming fit down,
    They're lying, we’re denying,
    Come on, it'll be so easy to just skip town,

    But you'll just keep typing,
    My enthusiasm will slowly grow taunt,
    Staying inside, take it in stride,
    You're face grows old and I seem gaunt,

    Won't you come outside,
    I'm begging you to run and play awhile,
    You're sleeping and I’m weeping,
    It's been years since I've last seen your smile,
