My heart breaks for the sixteenth time.
By now my blood should be going blind.
Numb as stone under a dome of stars,
By now my heart should be growing bars.
Bars of bone to keep me in,
To keep me out of the state I'm in.
Materialize and fly to me,
Arrive to me through my memory.
Oh, but we always played so nice.
Why did it end I tears?
We were marked and made for this –
The dullest ache, the most ruinous bliss.
Kiss me now and take it all.
I close my eyes and I fall and fall.
Branded now, red-handed now,
I'm on my back and I'm counted out.
It wasn't worth all the pain we caused.
The moon it shone through my glass jaw.
Oh, but we always played so nice.
Why did it end I tears?
Oh, we shattered, so nicely played.
Oh, what a mess we made.
...the most ruinous bliss.
We were marked and made for this –
The dullest ache, the most ruinous bliss.
