Candles

My hand finds a place

With the holes in the walls

My palm lays gently across your face

Your cheeks still red from what your drinking

And I'll lay on my back

With your head in my lap

My neck still crooked from starring right back at you

With all my feeling sinking

It's not a mistake to feel this way

I'm just another casualty

Another roman nose

While all my candles blow

And I'll wait by the phone

Cause you call like you said

I fall asleep with my notes left un-read

Doesnt matter what they said

And I'll whisk you away

And we'll dance all alone

You check your phone he says

"oh you look great tonight"

Another hopeless fight

Was it a mistake to feel this way

I can't love nothing causally

Another broken nose

Staring at my dog bowl
