IV


Gift or a curse? You're on my mind all day. You toss and turn all night. I hope you find your way. Lost in your dreams. As real as it seems. A beautiful nightmare, woke up, didn't recognize me. Move to hold you, abruptly denied. The way we collide nowadays, I wish to stop time. Love in reverse, we should run and disperse. Instead we're trapped in the cycle, clutching the hurt

The years passed and not once were you at ease. Your sick love spun me through, through your disease. I swore that I'd never say again I'll take you back

Fear my life, you're waving the kitchen knife. Never went to sleep angry, now this is how we end the night. Bypassing red flags. Complexities get the best of me. Flashback to the beginning, when things were pure ecstasy. A bottle of wine, Xanax and cheap cigarettes. Slow dancing with the devil, it's evident we missed some steps. Zero to a hundred. Minute spats become major. Between the rough sex and the fighting, again we woke the neighbors

The years passed and not once were you at ease. Your sick love spun me through, through your disease. I swore that I'd never say again I'll take you back. (You keep laughing cause I'm taking you back). Now it's too late. You've come and gone again and left your mess. (Been on my mind all day). I swore that I'd never say again I'll take you back. (I'm feeling scared cause I'm taking you back). Now it's too late. You've come and gone again and left your mess

While it pours upon my city, while it pours upon my streets, while it pours on stranger neighbors, now I can't sleep
