raze the air in here is sickly sweet
and you look good enough to chew on
how many years have we lived here?
these walls know all our dirty secrets
we tried like hell to wash them
but some things just won't come clean
our twisted truth
has stained the faux wood ceiling beams

underneath your skin
you might find my veins twitching
they're just the same as yours
mutual velvet whiplash
i'm blind as the wind that brought you here
we were made to grow together
coalesce like vapours do
you be me
and i'll be someone new

this house was poorly built
by hands unaware of the lay of the land
a cinder block mortar retaining wall
is the only thing keeping it all together
resisting the lateral pressure
of renegade soil
exceeding the angle of repose

let's tear it all down
and start again

what's it to you?
