Another Sleeping Beauty Who Never Woke Up

Given enough time, everything dies.
We discovered your promises were beautiful lies.

She flies away towards the stars,
She flies away with all of our hearts.

We had our time and we all took our turn,
She was warm to the touch, and now she burns.

Look over me and pretend I'm not here-
Like her body, soon I'll disappear.

~...~

You flaunt your pride around your throat,
So let's kick the chair, and see if you float.

You tell me you're better now (but you're up to no good.)
You tell me you'd never leave (but we both know you would.)

I've been picking flowers to rest on our grave,
I've been picking flowers for all the love we wouldn't save.

I've asked you to leave, now I'm telling you to go.
I've asked if you cared, yet I never wanted to know.
