Call the Kiss

Under stars.
i watch the sky.
as night consumes the daylight.
and i recall the sweetest dreams.
but red wine helps them fade.
here's to another glass.
i need it to displace.
the emptiness i cannot swallow.
i tried to cleanse these guilty hands.
but the stains they won't leave.
i tried to rush to your defense.
but i tripped on my weak words.
don't terrorize.
my senseless whines will fade.
my eyes complain.
my mouth stays shut.
i leave you in your bed.
i pulled your teeth.
to hear the truth.
the truth is it still kills me to this day.
but don't terrorize.
my senseless whines will fade.
into another glass.
it's too soon for today.
today i feel about okay.
i wait for these nights to come to an end.
so i can feel at home.
i tried to rush to your defense.
but these guilty hands they shake.
don't terrorize.
my senseless whines will fade.
if i could split my heart in two.
i'd give the beating half to you.
if these words never rise above us.
i swear i'd slit my wrists for you.
if life becomes so cold and dim.
that to breathe is to live.
then i'll breathe for you.
but i won't repent.
i won't repent for what i did to make this break.
here's to another glass.
i need it to replace the emptiness.
i cannot take away
