Walk Of Shame

Walking home under the same street lights

On the pavement as flawed as my body

Do you remember things the way I do?

My heavy chest gravitating me wearily

Has she read the note I left?

Etched on the ground where her breath left my neck

Telling her where I'm going

I swear I saw her smile at me, I just won't forget

She won't find me tonight

Nor will her kiss bleed out of sight

Cutting the scars that kiss my flesh

Making sure that the memory stays fresh

She won't find me tomorrow

Not in the water, not in the wind

Not where the start of song begins

Not in the pages where I am meant

Inside a box in the drawer

Hear the sound of a beat so sore

Throbbing, but beating the same

For the body lost in the walk of shame
