Patterns (day 131)

Drink from me and you might regret it

Spill this cup before you’re halfway through

A taste of me and you’re reeling dizzy

It wasn’t an accident, I’d spill me too

 

So give me blessings, write on my scars

These drugs are worth all my weight in love

So paint my patterns, draw on my walls

These drugs are worth all my weight in love

 

Kiss my past with a shoe-shined smile

But let it go when we’ve toasted and cried

Sweet symphonies to spin us faster

I don’t blame you for drinking this lie

 

So give me blessings, write on my scars

These drugs are worth all my weight in love

So paint my patterns, draw on my walls

These drugs are worth all my weight in love

 

Legends only leave behind a name etched in stone

Flames in my breath and a house on fire

I’m not a legend but I’ll carve your name

And I’ll evaporate to lift you higher

 

So give me blessings, write on my scars

These drugs are worth all my weight in love

So paint my patterns, draw on my walls

These drugs are worth all my weight in love
