I think I put the nail in the coffin last night.
I think I got tired of running from city to city looking for you in every dive bar I could find.
So I took a hammer to the head.
You live for the good time. But I only have heavy darknesses.
I wanted to come over, shove them all under your bed so we could make love on top of it and I could forget about them for a little while.
I was using you as a high. But, damn, you're like an expensive drug I can't afford all the time.
I'd have loved to be your good time. Some sort of partner in crime. That ridiculous Bonnie and Clyde.
But it was me who lied and it was you who never tried.
Now I'm back on my bedroom floor just like all those times before.
Going over schemes that didn't work.
So the nail's in the coffin and now we wait.
Sometimes they come to dig up the grave.
Rarely.
If not, well, then it's right where it should have stayed.
