I am always watching
I am always taking down
The beat of your footsteps
The cold of the room when you’re not around
Forever reciting
A prayer I made out of words left out to rot
Let them stay unbroken
Let them be the one thing I’ve still got
To hold to you
You drape each room
In black and blue
And silence too
What do I know? Rhetorical? Fuck no
I am really asking you to unmask me
What do I know? Rhetorical? Fuck no
I am really asking you to unmask me
Earn another halo
Take your things and go
Dig in blood red soil
Wearing chains to keep me in toil
I don’t need it yet
To hold to you
You drape each room
In black and blue
And silence too
(the cold in the room when you’re not around)
