Black and white newsprint scatters the floor
As she stares at each photo longingly...

A tear is slipped
But drenched in a kiss...

I never pitied you
For all the marks he left on your heart...

Your breath reeks of lonliness
I thought you had left...

As the scars turn to a lighter pink
The tears last even longer...

With questions running at the speed of light in...
She's ready to lose it...

Caked on make-up like a dark clown
No one knows the real sparkle in her eyes...

Panted charcol eyes and cherry lips
A disguise to hide the lies...

With spirit soaking deep down into her pores
She denies his trust...

Take it away
Take all the burdens away...

You rip me apart
Rip me apart...

His eyes so convincing
She can't get away from the taste...
