Ruins Of Romeo (Edited)

She seems black and white
but the colours are blinding
and he thinks this is all there is
but theres so much more
for a distraction

Dreams in technicolour
swim before his eyes
she screams
just for a sound in the silence
and it was this moment
when she needed him most
he let her down
that she crawled back inside
to keep it all hidden

He was oft found at
the bottom of some bottle
in the middle of town
sleeping on the bench
shrouded in memories
mumbling to himself
he'd hoped there was something better
and he thought
this soul-crushing life
couldnt get much worse
