Wrapped Up So Good

House of cards
in the house of Gods
What´s mine is yours,
you can´t lose what´s lost

I have antique silverware stuck in my head
Old, moldy carpets wrapped around my legs
My arms can´t move,
my mouth is full of butterflies
Your arms can´t hold me
´cause they´d tell nothing but lies
And your honesty lies beneath your touch
And my modesty lies beneath the trash that doesn´t speak much

I have called you to find me,
but the wind keeps on hushing
I waited for you to need me
but my flesh is turning to mush and
I guess I´ll sleep alone
while I turn into bones
I guess you don´t need to come
´cause you already gave me some
And your generosity ran out just last night
And my curiosity killed my last feline life line

Knight or pawn
in this game of Gods
What I won had it´s cost,
you can´t rule out the loss

We had dust in our love since it began to bloom
Little crickets writhing in our sugar spoon
You should´ve danced me to the moon,
fuck,
I should´ve pranced like never before
But here I am, singing to the stars
You carried me, though
so I shouldn´t mind the fall

You keep on laughing like you never laughed with me
I´ll keep your secret, ´cause I´m here to keep
I see you never meant to hurt me
but here I am, wrapped up so neat
The stars start to turn into flashes
memories turn into heart beats
Your favourite girl is tucked in, ready to sleep
Lullabies in bass lines, deep
Butterflies hatch out while the final verse is sung
But after a while nothing really ever begun

The Scarp

Hey,

did you say something?
Did you call the one you should´ve not
and forget the names and bucket lists
Just to feel like you could let go

You just explain your own words
and try to find a meaning
Even though your bones know
you´d shiver anyway

Her eyes look like moon beams
and his neck's fuzz feels like love
And they count the words they could possibly say
before the clock turns on their way

To say they´re lonely

"Hey,

you´re lonely"
and empty inside
hollow and useless
as the frozen seashells of the shore

And shortly
someone is missing
and another´s left alone
Nobody´s winning
as they already know

Hey,

did he whisper her name?
While the nights got cold,
and the jokes got old,
did he prompt her?

Even though if he didn´t,
she must´ve heard something
´cause she was ready to run,
ready to say she heard nothing

And hey,

I´m just watching
I´m just listening the wind as it´s breathing
All I can do is let them jump
If they can handle the cold crack
and then
leave them

Trembling their fever,
hypothermia,
7 minutes of luck as they lose it all
and gasp for the last memories of bliss
before they unbind
