Pact

There’s nothing left to taste 


But these little white pills


And I know we shouldn’t 


But you know I will.


So light all the candles 


And lock the door


While I take these pills


And fade some more.

There’s nothing left to say


Except for lies


And everything sounds


Like saying goodbye.


So hold me closer


For a while still


You’re fading too


But I know you will.

There’s nothing left to blame


Except for fate


We should have met in spring


But we met too late.


You burned like a star


And I was the sky


But how dark is the night


When the stars all die?

Now there’s nothing to write


We don’t already know


And there’s nothing above us


There’s nothing below.


So hold my hand 


And I’ll stroke your hair


You lead the way


I’ll follow you there.
