Sex & Loneliness

Words are scattered everywhere
Summer's gone and the chilly air
Has found a home inside your chest
So I will grow some thicker skin
That indie beard over sunken chins
And try my hardest to contest
The window's whispering your name
And the? shine from the ATMs

The memory of your window's view is clear? kids and chandeliers
Somewhere in the darkness there was hope
But even when we seize to move
The bottled heat would somehow prove
You to be more than?
You chose the cheapest of escapes
And I hope it's keeping you awake
When you're laying there alone at night
After you put out the lights to keep your insecurities asleep
While sorting out which memories to keep
When we both sleep in different beds
And dream of sex and loneliness
With warm, but shallow breath

The bitterness that I inhale
and the elloquence that I exhale
I admit they tend to fog my specs
But that was fine until the day
You came to wipe the mist away
And I chose to love and have regrets
I hope you're keeping that in mind
As you are leaving me behind
With a smile that speaks of no remorse
While I'm wondering of course
If I can still be caught remembering
Every single freckle on your skin
At the hour when the ship comes in
Waving hands and easy grins
For every heart that went
