contagious

sometimes you feel the drain
and you can even see
the black clouds roll in
but you are not to blame
for you
when a heart can't be named
and a storm takes all the fame
no no you can't take it with you
desperate falling for a place
to return
you are not to blame
for the sea of revelry
can you bury the mistakes
in desert form
daring to believe in water
just because she is gone
doesn't mean it never mattered
or won't again
because you say it
doesn't mean dry mouths
are for dirty words
it means goodbye
because you say everything
but responsibility
it means this is not for you
and just because
you pull the chain
doesn't mean you can have
everything
without ever acknowledging
a god damned
thing
other
than
you
