Yea, we all want to be big, big stars,but then we have second thoughts about that.
Its give and take until you've given more than you could ever dream of having. And every breath I take is carefully guided from my lips to yours. I want to be your life support when all else fails. I'll hook you up to the IV, lay you down on the gurney, and kiss your eyes closed. nothing is more/less attractive than helplessness.
It's too bad beauty pageants aren't held in hospital wings. Robes as dresses, needles as necklaces, and rubber bands to hold up their tresses. High heels are replaced with cold heels against lime scented tile. It's much easier to turn and wave without the threat of falling flat on your face.
This morning I cried myself to sleep just to forget about last night. The way I cleverly crafted myself into every person I have ever hated mixed into one. The only thing I hate more than liars are hypocrites. Fakes. What do you have left if not your face?
You can cry wolf all you want, but every time you do I'm looking straight at you. This mess was made by two, not too much alcohol or deception. This was the result of heads thinking too much, of hearts loving too fast. Our bodies are stripped and laid out to rest. Darling, this is love, not a contest.
But you've challenged every move I've made, watched me fall, and shoved it in my face. Make me out to be the bad guy all you want, because in the end you and I both know the truth. Make sure what you're playing with is something you're willing to lose.
The world is quiet here.
