I'm a whole damn town

And we exchange a slang between us
With room to interpret the sounds
of lovers alive
Sharpen minds like razor wire
Hands clasped together
Lips pressed apart
Trading secrets we've hidden forever
Embedded in scars
Against the grain
Keep your ear to the ground
That's just the indelicate sounds of falling
Call it whatever
Things of the heart
Could put back together
and mend what was pulling apart

The days start adding up
There are no easy answers
At the end of every coffee cup
And wolves prowl at the door
Tearing clean through flesh and bone
'Til there's no more that we can offer
Breaking
Climbing up the walls start
Shaking
Skin begins to crawl
A tin can phone between our padded rooms
I'll forever call for you
Watch how quickly a moment can turn
Blanket like
The sun can wrap you up 'til it burns
Somehow it's taken me longer to learn

Some days
It’s a feat just to keep composed
And I could fake it but you’d know
In the shade of a patient moment
In cool conversation
I like the way you say my name
Nothing else sounds that way
I’ll fold before the house of cards caves in
Let you sink into my skin
And pour out every ounce of affection I can
Do you still regard the statue as a work of art
Once you’ve spotted all the cracks?
Maybe a work in progress?
I’d settle for that
I’d settle for that
Stumbling ahead, let's call that “forward motion”
