flash in the pan

kiss your teeth
lick away the excess nicotine
chase your addictions
replace them all with me
eyes on me darling
focus up
kiss me
kiss me
kiss me


spit your whiskey and shit beer back into my mouth
we can drown together
bring out the worst in each other
let our love be expressed in screams and scratches
eyes on us love
burn it down
let us be ruined
let us be ruined
let us be ruined

in the darkness of our days, I thought we’d never separate
condemned to be in love
it was like living in our own haunted house
we were our own ghosts
eyes down dear
wish us away
it’s over now
it’s over now
it’s over now

had it really only been a few months of chaos
consumed by toxic passion
our love affair was only meant to scar
broken hearts cutting each other to ribbons
eyes forward pal
it’s time to move on
maybe we’ll be better for the next person
i hope you’re better
