Both of Us

Little psycho killer

you never laid a hand on anyone

No one faded beneath your boot

But you struck down hope's quiet army

That tomorrow would be a new day

You were a powerhouse in your antithesis

Of your unwanted present

And your demanded future

When did you crash into the dark

My beautiful schizophrenic

The trip of my mind,

the flip of my heart

Where did the crazy come from

My hirsute assassin

There would've been a place in this life

If we were a tenth of our promises

You would've been as vital to me

As the air I breathe

But we burned our bridges

And drowned our history in fire

Lit matches

Shattered all that was left
