Tied you down then walked for miles   Under streetlight your face turned to gold   Caught the scent of a reconcile   Loud restraint could draw that curtain closed      Slur, stutter, stall, drape the tinsel-dim the lights   Sacred remnants-indiscerned   Seeds thrown to the sewers   Casual exposure at the estuary   Discovered and disposed, disposed of in one final frisk      Solid turns liquid with one smooth hesitation   And so this ordeal's becoming more and more traumatic   And so I'm becoming all the more dramatic   Passion crash-red ribbon arms and legs-coming loose   Knot become untied, gift wrapped empty box   Entrusted then discarded like a piece of litter   Never again thought about      In all this haste, I wasted any chance of reconcile   Mountain turns valley with one swift hesitation   It's not supposed to happen like this   No, not like this, a wish to forget      A wish that I'll forfeit drunk and distracted   We abandon our good selves, dogs pulling stunts   Thoughts collect like condensation before they   Drop to the floor and we abandon our good selves
