From Autumn to Ashes - Chloroform Perfume

 ★ 小桀 



The end result of so many meetings

At late night dinners with no one eating

We sit in corners and sip burnt coffee

Count the tiles upon the ceiling 

Skip this pretense and cut straight to dying

Don't pick me to keep your eyes from crying

You said so much without even parting your lips



It's past 3 am and I'm still far from sleep

This is a habit that I can't break

You're my only company

I'm skipping stones



Street lights flicker like this match in my hand 

Begging to strike 

And I keep repeating, but this payphone tele stopped receiving

Flat out of change now I'm sure you won't accept the charges

It's all the same cause by the morning I'll be halfway to Colorado

Or some place like that

You said so much without even parting your lips

It's past 3 am and I'm still far from sleep

This is a habit that I can't break

You're my only company

I'm skipping stones down a south suburban street



She keeps on asking "do you think it hurts much to die"

"It's hurting so much more to stay alive now"

She's gonna find out how much it hurts to die

She laced her perfume up with death

Feel it in my lungs

so I'll pull in the deepest breath

and drop my head

END
