The Stars You Gathered, The Stars I Destroyed
Faded skin, bleeding lips, sore eyes Swallow the pills My eyes are as wide as yours We can see the beauty in each other Swallow

Our hands meet across the ocean Under the pale moon's glow Our faces surrogate to silver lining As stars dance beneath our feet We build a wall of our wounds And we drown in each other Our earthless faces buried deep In mountains beyond hope Forgiveness and sorrow And hope and envy Wounds and healing And distance and time And pain and love In love Across the ocean Under the moon Through our wounds We meet, again

Loss of your better self Withered skin, crooked smile, broken eyes Empty wish never granted The leaves that fell around you, pale and white Scar tissue of the soil beneath the waterless I will walk you to the womb We will find and hold your wings

I am waiting with you The sirens sound and I can’t bear to listen I am waiting with you I’ll die as a piss-stain on your bed

I’ve failed you my dear Bury me at my mothers’ feet and curse me on my fathers’ sin How many stars you gathered, how many I destroyed I am grey sky womb

Of earth, we are the same as we always were We pass away So they took our walls and they broke them apart Put blades to our wrists and destroyed our art Took our scripted conversations and wrote new parts And now we can’t breathe, lying cold in the dark And now our hope is gone and our dreams are fading We are far too weak for retaliating So we raise the noose and we stand together After tonight, we're all dead forever We’re all dead Everyone kill yourself
