put it where it hurts most.

it happens every time babe.
it's in the way they sing.
     every lyric jumps through my fingers.
it's in the way i think to the past.
                      you used to be around.
it's in the way you don't say a god damn thing.
            your name is the same, but your soul hasn't been within miles of mine.
it's in the way i always think you will.
                             that was the last time i gave it all.


it happens every god damn time.
it's the way they say your name.
          god, like they know you.
it's the way they tell the stories.
                   shut up shut up
it's the way they look at me after.
     i itch my wrists.
it's the way they ask if they left anything out.
                             i say no, but it's always yes.


it happens every time.
it's the way i take it all back.
       i'm here, "going down as you're lover, your friend." 
it's the way i'll always give it all to you.
             "fading to black and i love you."
it's the way you probably already know.
                            "wherever you go i'm callin, even if you're breakin my heart."   
it's the way it's always in the way.
                    "smother me."



"i love you but baby do me a favor... don't reply."
