if i could shut my eyes for even just a minute today
i can make you disappear much easier in my mind
i can back myself out of this mess that was created and believe what i was told
i shut my eyes for the 5880 hours i wish i had said something else
‘i want to burn this filth’
if I could shut my eyes for even just a minute today
i can let myself go to where my feet touch the water
and the sun burns through my scars
i could shut my eyes and hear the laughter again
and feel the waves wash away my sins
i just want to shut me eyes for even a moment
just long enough to erase this apparition
and replace the past




I slowly roll over and bleed him out
he says its ok…you can shut your eyes now
