Breathe with me,
The walls can feel it, too,
Bring this pulse to life
Like it's made of your lime wire lies.
The taste of you isn't ever sweet,
But I'm a sucker for danger,
An addict, rather.
You must've seen it first hand,
Because you painted your teeth the color
Of blood,
And you were looking for me and no one else.
You went through corridors and hallways,
Leading me to believe,
You had actually seen these walls,
So you'd be ready for the damage,
But I didn't realize you shut your eyes the whole time.

I see flashes of green,
Scratching at the windows,
Swimming through the curtains,
And leaking onto the floorboards.
I rise from cool sheets,
And darling,
I'm yours.
You're the nightmare in my head
But the way you tell it,
I'll take the barrel of a gun,
Just let me fall in love.

Words shouldn't be sniffed
But you said it wasn't Christmas without snow
And words meant nothing,
But suddenly,
They were everything.

Green sparklers in your eyes,
You're watching,
Setting fire to the gardens
I grew for control.
With a glow looking like my favorite fluorescent dreams,
We spent nights kissing in your car,
With Ed Sheeran CDs playing.

You took me to the edge of the world
Because I loved the risk,
But I couldn't breathe
And you liked me better breathless,
Without words to use as weapons.

I'll walk the streets of safety
And the streetlights flicker,
But I know you're not here looking for me anymore,
Because I'm a sucker for trouble,
An addict to danger,
And a single card in your deck of 52,
But someday you'll skip track 9 and find out you can't cheat your way up,
And you'll really be needing an even number in the game
But I won't be there.
I've given these street signs my time.

The phrase limewire was used even though it has no meaning associated with this it just sounds cool and contributes to the aesthetic. Please tell me you know what Limewire was?? I can't be the only one tbh

Green aesthetic. Ugh I love green. I always forget how much I love it but it comes back around.
