Fiction

I could fall asleep
If you talk to me
Your words stop at your teeth
Where the silence shapes the bleak

Saltwater on my cheeks
I'm sinking in the sheets
Reflecting on unsaid
I wish midnight would follow me

I just might
Forecast a future fight
Expecting stormy weather
So I'm dressed up right

Oh, fiction, hold me down
Tell me that I'm out of bounds
It's quiet in the house
I guess I'm talking to myself

I accept the fate
Fill my glass up next to me
Listen as the traffic speeds
On the corner of my street

Tell me why
I used to get goodbyes
It's not that I feel lonely
It's cause you're dressed up right

Oh, slow down
We can go slow now
Just slow down
We can go slow now

Oh, fiction, hold me down
Tell me that I'm out of bounds
It's quiet in the house
I guess I'm talking
To myself
