-Or die trying-


We fall so often.
Bathed in the light we never turn off.
We’ve walked so far today.
I rest my head on your shoulder.
So little comfort comes my way.

I stare into your eyes and see the sky
You’re brand-new again.
I won’t leave a mark.
We fall too often.
I’m laced with defeat again.

You talk. You ask. You tell.
I’ve no reply for you.
My throat has been cut
So I write in blood.
Until I begin to fade.

I rest my head on your shoulder.
To steal some comfort
My warm turns to cold
My world turns to black.
We’ve walked so far today.
