lyrics

The clock struck thirteen. I’d like to think you were too good for this Earth, but it was a freak accident. How could you expect this to happen? How dare the skies stay blue. While you’re hooked up to a ventilator, I’m down three floors being evaluated, about to look for a get-well card. How serious could it be, learning young loss? I wish you would’ve switched with me. That’s how I wanted it to be, but instead I’ll dress up nicely and look at something that isn’t you. We’ve both been stricken. You in the head, me in the pew. I can feel my eyes bleeding rain with a clouded mind, but I can’t let it out. At your wake, your mother sputtered out “he loved what you said” but you were dead before the card made its way up to your room. Ignore the gloom by rewriting history, but I don’t blame her. You and I left on bad terms and you left in an orange hoodie on a broken zipline. No closure.

paper weight pigs and the lighthouse by interpol remind me of that "park" (~15'^2) where i would skate and think about the boy i was falling in love with even though i still thought i was straight and i desperately wished to even just be his friend but he was so aloof which made it worse for me and the gravity of my desire wrecked me that summer quasiotter
