_____________!!text v[ersu]s. romance

i can recall the lonely feeling of emptiness flowing through my veins as i fell asleep. new jersey and i don't deserve you and this mouth longs for the taste of metal once more. i can recall the stinging feeling of emptiness flowing out of my wrists and eyes [what's more: the viscosity of blood or the trail of tears?]. my wrath will reign down on lovers as i slip farther and farther away from you [dont turn your head, we're already oceans apart]. so i'll find the rope from which to hang these dreams of red rose lined tile floors and say goodbye to this fallacy of you. consistency never meant a thing, it's only actuality that keeps us going. silent clocks lay moaning on the floor [they're all stuck on the time that we fell in love] and i know i've never felt so callous before. but shattered glass predicts shattered hearts and i'll carve mine into my sleeve. hallucinogens make me love the tar-pit road that extends thousands of miles to reach you and things just don't add up: me plus these pills could never equal a replacement for you. i can recall the warm feeling of the liquor leaking through the hollow structure that is my body to make me fathom such realities. new jersey and i will never be deserving of you.
