Your style wears thin in silence drenched
Sugar coated words drip red
Before the spell broke I felt her lips, softly pressing against mine
His needles in my arms, and we were home

You didn’t exist

My eyes fluttered on beat
Red silks and nicotine
Your silhouette just a thin shadow behind the door
Your words just wind

I took her arms and pressed her against the bricks
My hands finding curves, bone under flesh
I led her through tunnels where you couldn’t find us
He drew his pretty pictures on my arms and hands
Your image fading quicker and quicker
And the farther we were the more I laughed
A smile in the corner of his lips
We were alone, we were home
Before the spell broke

When I knew you couldn’t find us I gently removed the silks from her soft skin
Sunk my fingers in her hair
And he created more pictures to remember us by
He leaned against the steel with his camera and cigarette
I tasted her
Worked my way around her curves with my tongue
We were alone
Before the spell broke
We were home

Now I sit inches from your face
Your style and pheromones wear strong
I turn my face, but your still there
I close my eyes, but my visions of her are blocked by your voice
Your sickly sweet words
I look at my arms and his pictures are gone
Inside I scream
Tears roll down my cheeks and you don’t say a thing
Before the spell broke you didn’t exist
We were alone
Before the spell broke
We were home
Before the spell broke
