Pretty Little Corpses

i never believed in tears

or drowning demons in drink

but when i met you

i understood

i understood

love songs

and slow-dancing

and why the soft touch

of kisses and

the holding of hands

are such beautiful things

and now i understand why

heartbreak sheds tears

and

how it feels

to fill an empty space

with the voice of a lover

long gone.
