forever (Patreon)

Today I used the word ‘forever’ to speak about our future 
I didn’t follow it up with any maybes or we’ll sees 
It felt heavy in my mouth 
Foreign 
Like chewing on the other side 
And maybe I’m the last to arrive here
Unfashionably late 
And I just don’t fucking care
Lover girl fights to the death 
Then resurrects herself 
Lifts her bloodied face 
Just to take another blow 
The crowd goes silent 
The footage plays
Bathtub chronicles 
Crying on street corners
Cigarettes shared when we had no other way home 
Blacked out rage 
A proverbial cage 
Two minds at odds 
Two hearts desperate to be known 
It’s an unfair depiction 
The editors have made a mockery of us 
They cut out all the good parts 
But I swear they were there 
And I don’t regret a thing 
Except everything I do 
And I’m sorry that the usage of ‘forever’ 
Has changed
