SO I DROPPED MY PENSIVE CONVERSATION FACE
AND SCARED YOU INTO TELLING ME THE TRUTH
SHE'S NOT WORTH MORE THAN 15 MINUTES
PARLAYS THIS KNOWLEDGE IN LEGS AND FLIRT

THEN WE'LL WASTE A FEW MORE LINES OF WANT
ON THE INCONCEIVABLE
I'LL ALWAYS BURN WITH AN EMPTINESS
I CAN'T FIND TO FILL
IT'S COLD COMFORT ANYMORE

A MINOR CURVE OF IMPERFECTION
SILHOUETTES THE BLACKEST OF GOODBYES
HOW MUCH CAN YOU INGEST?
HAVE THE FEELINGS BEEN REAL IN YEARS x2

YOU MARK THE TERRITORY
WITH A FIFTH OF FIST AND APOLOGIES
BLUR OUT THE EVIDENCE
WITH A MAKE-UP KISS, DON'T KISS ME
I'M NOT SO EASILY CATEGORIZED
AND I'M REMINDED BY THAT DAMN SMUG SUPERIOR SMILE


THEN WE'LL WASTE A FEW MORE LINES OF WANT
ON THE INCONCEIVABLE
I'LL ALWAYS BURN WITH AN EMPTINESS
I CAN'T FIND TO FILL
IT'S COLD COMFORT ANYMORE
