These boots of suede
will never fade
if I picture the rain
going away
I've tried to save
falling things from the humble ground
I finally
tried to leave
but you're holding the keys
to everything I could want and need
in my head and in the ground
There's never those hard feelings
even now
Years reaching for the ceiling
Show me how
you think you look so different
You never change
You never fade
when you wear olive green
And in a place like this
How was I to replicate the way we felt on 5th
With flashing lights
and passing time
never holding your hand
but with your arm in mine
we formally crossed the streets to Julian's rhymes
But Julian spoke the truth
It was just a phase with you

You couldn't leave the house even if you wanted to
They tried to give a damn but you could never get a clue
So much baggage but you never let them lend a hand
Instead you
Drank away and started tripping on your ceiling fan
You used to hate "I told you so's"
But you seem to take them well now
And I can tell
It's over
You're sober
No longer the pictures you took in October
Reminders of all nighters
And not the kind with used up lighters
You're a fighter
And you're tired
So your skin made the perfect bed
For the flower
That you planted
When you told yourself now's not the time to be dead

So this is it
The end of you and me and everything in between
But their expectations were always bound to bleed out
Your air was sinless and you wouldn't let me breathe with you
You couldn't see this through
It was fleshed out
Only to be flushed down
Along with the rest of me
There's no chance
With your cold hands
Giving unwanted sympathy
A lighter will burn a bridge fine
The flames won't swallow the sky
I'm glad they are peaceful tonight
I can see you from my side
But why would I want that
I close the shades behind my back
To hide away the sunlight's face
That shows me all the time I've wasted
Aimlessly numbing myself
You reaching out to me is hell
Cause nothing you could say or do will bring him home
Leave me alone

I've already soothed the burns
From the radiation
Coming from the rage you felt
When I wished you well and said I don't want complications
I didn't mean it
In a bad way
I just figured
That I'd always
Be honest
You said to be honest
I'm always honest
But now I know
You never are
I didn't think that you'd go far with your
Racist boyfriend and his fancy car
But somehow you did
It's like
A stolen coat put in a lost and found or
Feeling the need to turn around
When the image of your face is already burned
In my head
It doesn't change a thing you did
I see right through
You're so predicable now
I know the truth
I never really had a doubt
You're not so screwed
From what I see it's all laid out
But you look so blue
For someone that's got it made
I didn't think that it would come to that
Where I was always wrong and we were always mad
I guess I'll claim the fault though
Because
I see you're busy making real good choices
Claiming you care about your best friend's voice
When the only thing you care about is
When you'll go to sleep
And yet you say you still have dreams
I see right through
You're so predicable now
I know the truth
I never really had a doubt
You're not so screwed
From what I see it's all laid out
But you look so blue
For someone that's got it made
You've totally got it made
