Flirting with the Darkness
April 11, 2014
I had hoped you would stick around
Until I saw my better days
And now I see my big mistake
In thinking you would stay
My feelings never left for you
And yours are just a ghost
Because you're everything I don't deserve
And what I need the most
These waves are crashing harder lately
Along with despair they bring
My screams for you to come back
But you don't hear a thing
The madness of our memories is all I have left
But I'm thankful for it
Because I'm flirting with the darkness
And I've fallen in love, I must admit
