Let's you and I stay awake all night

we can pretend we feel safe in bed

we can drink till we're happy again

a lifeless smile, with no in and no out


i think i can

can taste blood in

in the back of my throat


on day three without sleep

we can pretend we don't envy the dead

we can hold our wrists to the sky

to greet a new day, with no in and no out
