Devotion

We don’t have to go outside at all

But I know you’re drawn to the light

I could lie here forever

And I'd like to go with you but if not, then other plans can be arranged

It's something so simple as a text

And something so big as the next....few months

It's a spritz of my perfume

It's your room with a bad view

We'll keep each other company as the night fades and I'll be gone in the morning

You'll awake and smell that scent but I'll be back on a train....to nowhere

It will be as if it never happened

With a CD in my hand given to me by you

We will go our separate ways for a few days and then we'll meet up once again...maybe

Preferably in our world of shapes and shadows

We'll laugh at the people who care about numbers and names 

Then we'll join in the party again, lit up under the spotlight

You love that attention, I just wish it would end

I’m trapped in our world but you wander into the unknown to me

You hear it from your friends, your boss, your mother

The applause, Everyone can see our show

It's something I'd like to change and it's something I don't have a solution for

I wished we were alone

Honesty would  break us

I can close my eyes to the ways I did you harm

You could never approve

I walk away briskly, cold as stone

Quitting you
