"Morning"

I bite my blackened nails as you pour the coffee

today will be the day you tell me your secrets



speak softly in my ear about days gone by

I listen but I'm in my head and I only hear what I want to hear



spill the truth on the rug and I'll cover it up

I've always been good at things like that...



how many times have you told me you need me?

I can see rain through the blinds and it makes me mellow



sip, sip, stir, drink...

the coffee tastes like memories



black, bitter, fading away with time

something told me to ignore you



but you know me... I took you in

and you held me high...too high



oh well pass the milk...
