Twitch’s Song [Lyrics]
I have never seriously tried to write a song, but I found this was the best form to express my feelings on the situation. Any thoughts?
Verse 1
Eyes open to visions of you
Caught in divisions of truth
Can’t tell if I’m dreaming still
Pinch me if any of this is real
Then you whispered, “Kiss me”
I can still taste the whiskey
Knew I’d come back for more
Picking you up off the floor
Rock bottom wasn’t lonely
When your arms would hold me
I ignored every warning sign
Bound by your grief and mine
Chorus
I can’t Just Pretend everything’s okay
(No pretending)
I can’t forget that day
You clung to me like Caramel
(Sickly sweet)
Had me under your spell
Now you’re the Specter over me
(Haunting me)
A restless vision set free
The pain falls down like Rain on us
(Washing me)
Turning ash to rust
Living with The Death of Peace of Mind
(Killing me)
Memories buried like landmines
Still can’t tell where we went wrong
(Questioning)
For what it’s worth, this is your song
Verse 2
Blinking away the memories of you
The first person I thought I knew
Shaken by recounting our sins
That’s when the nightmare begins
Never settled for the discount rack
Loved the marks you left on my back
So many ideas, so many plans
You’re not one to sit on your hands
It was easy to take the armor down
And I got high off every sound
Always likely to crash and burn
A lesson we’re still trying to learn
Chorus
Bridge
Did we ever let go of the past
Or were we too afraid to ask
Did we both fall for the ghosts
Of what we wanted the most
Was it real or was it lust
Was there ever enough trust
Can we ever really let go
Do we really want to know
I was ready for your worst
not for the bubble to burst
Final Chorus
