elastic twisted on my thumb
back and forth back and forth till it’s numb
and i said nothing
turn on the water over and over
and every time i get a little bit older
and i’ve still said nothing
my hair grew down down down
it brushes my chin
yours is gone gone gone
and i’ve said nothing
i’m trying to keep the temple of us
untouched in my mind
i see it in a way i never did
but i leave it
i’m trying to keep the temple of us
untouched in my mind
i leave it abandoned but still standing
where it is
crush a berry in my fingertips
and the juice drip drip drip drips
haven’t gone back to sit on those steps
that i used to
back and forth back and forth and over again
maybe you don’t need to be my friend
down down drip drip and back and forth
you owe me but maybe i owe you more
i’m trying to keep the temple of us
untouched in my mind
i see it in a way i never did
but i leave it
i’m trying to keep the temple of us
untouched in my mind
i leave it abandoned but still standing
where it is
back and forth back and forth and over again
maybe you don’t need to be my friend
down down drip drip and back and forth
you owe me but maybe i owe you more
