I walked the earth with open eyes
And yet I could not see
The ghost of what was killing me
And none of it was free
A soul aboard a sinking ship
A leper and a fool
The sound of silence filling me
Yet none of it was true
I wished upon a shooting star
To be the one who cared
To have a heart and not a hole
The one who wasn’t scared
“It ends with me” I said to her
A promise and a curse
I broke my word with every breath
But what came next was worse
I slept around yet did not sleep
With harlots and with whores
I never was and never will
Be less and never more
“I love you too” is not a lie
A life that must be lived
To hold you in my warm embrace
And that I always will
