Echo Thief

Echo Thief
Unfold somewhere in these lovely bones
Follow the cynical smiles
Hands over neck and away we go
Here
Tracing my breath on the floor
Laid out and begging for more and more
Hear me call out

Don't dry your eyes like its going to be ok
Don't fall apart just 'cause it feels right
You can't help me now
Blank
Tracing my red up the door
Echoes and terrible lies
Hands over face and a veil slides away into nothing and nowhere
Frayed
No filters or frames of my own
A thief and the weight of a knife
Hands over mouth and I stare in the face of the damned and the broken
Don't shine a light like it's going to be ok
Don't force a smile just 'cause it feels right
You can't help me now
I'm not telling
You're not asking
I'm all secrets
You're all shadow
I'm unbent in your refraction
I'm erased and down we go
Don't dry your eyes like it's going to be ok
Don't fall apart just cause it feels right
Don't shine a light like it's going to be ok
Don't force a smile just 'cause it feels right
