shuffling through this broken film, i'm fiction played in present tense. you slammed me up against the taste, blood copper in my mouth from where your touch came down. i'm all cut up. i'm all lit up. the streetlight glare's angelic glow, like brand new love, is shining on me now. so this is how the latest liar in her life became the reason why. i lost my mind. i came unwound. but i warned you of awful things i wanted to do. fought, for once it's not my fault. the sidewalk saved me, broke your fall. connected when i should've paused. you made your great escape. this isn't me. this isn't me. this violent symmetry is out of phase. i'm laughing at us in disgrace. i'm laughing. god it's such a joke. and when our moment came, "what's your name again?" was icing on the cake. what do you want me to say? you took her heart and gave it away. you gave it away.
