The Only Promise

Do you laugh at the rain?

Do you smile at the stars?

Are you mad from all the pain?

I can take you oh so far.

You hear the thunder in your bed,

But the thunder’s only in your head.

There are things I can’t explain,

But turn your head to them,

Because you want this in the end.

 

It will never be the same,

After it has been like this,

The only things I can promise you,

Are consequences.

Best Enemies

Her eyes are squinted suspiciously,

You know we’re all looking cause you’re always something to see,

I close, my eyes, Not wanting anything about you,

To linger in my brain,

You’re a friend that I can’t handle,

A connection I can’t maintain.

 

You speak in knives,

Spit your fires,

So we’re best enemies,

Till the death

Oh we’re best enemies,

I’ll never be your friend.

 

You speak so loudly, cause you want everybody to ear,

The empty words you say, the things you claim that you don’t fear,

I know you’re scared, cause your countenance betrayed the words they hear,

I don’t think you meant it, when you said you loved him,

Cause you’re still in kindergarten, and we’re all toys to you,

 

Chorus.
