Cheekbones​​ ​​that​​ ​​shine​​ ​​like​​ ​​diamonds​ Oh​​ ​​darkness, ​​ ​​I ​​am​​ ​​nerveless Eyes​​ ​​closed​​ ​​for​​ ​​lack​​ ​​of​​ purpose or lack​​ ​​of​​ ​​light​​ Or​​ ​​fear​​ ​​that​​ ​​I’ll​​ ​​lose​​ ​​it I’m​​ ​​still​​ ​​afraid​​ ​​of​​ ​​the​​ ​​dark You​​ ​​were​​ ​​my​​ ​​light​​ ​​for​​ ​​so​​ ​​long​ Oceans​​ ​​deep​​ ​​and ​​mountains​​ ​​tall​ Our​​ ​​future​​ ​​plays​​ ​​tricks​​ ​​on​​ ​​us, ​​ ​​huh? Stories​​ ​​that​​ ​​wreak​​ ​​of​​ ​​fiction Adorned, ​​ ​​written​​ ​​in​​ ​​cursive You​​ ​​were​​ ​​a​​ ​​catholic​​ ​​school​​ ​​kid You​​ ​​kept​​ ​​quiet​​ ​​for​​ ​​fear​​ ​​that​​ ​​you’d​​ ​​choose​​ ​​this​ Dimples​​ ​​that​​ ​​cut​​ ​​through​​ ​​eyelids Oh, ​​ ​​heartlessness​​ ​​is​​ ​​burden High​​ ​​lows, ​​ ​​for​​ ​​you’re​​ ​​uncertain Of​​ ​​eagerness​​ ​​or​​ ​​fear​​ ​​that​​ ​​you’ll​​ ​​lose​​ ​​it​ Or​​ ​​fear​​ ​​that​​ ​​you’ll​​ ​​lose​​ ​​it​​ Or​​ ​​fear​​ ​​that​​ ​​you’ll​​ ​​lose​​ ​​it​​ Or​​ ​​fear​​ ​​that​​ ​​you’ll​​ ​​lose​​ ​​it​​ Or​​ ​​fear​​ ​​that​​ ​​you’ll​​ ​​lose​​ ​​it​​ The​​ ​​person​​ ​​you​​ ​​made​​ ​​yourself​​ ​​out​​ ​​to​​ ​​be​ Would​​ ​​feel​​ ​​sorry​​ ​​for​​ ​​what​​ ​​you have​​ ​​done​​ ​​to​​ ​​me​ Like​​ ​​scrapped​​ ​​sheet​​ ​​metal​​ ​​shaves​ ​ivories​ You​​ ​​started​​ ​​out​​ ​​slow​​ ​​but​​ ​​you​​ ​​cut​​ ​​your​​ ​​teeth​ You​​ ​​cut​​ ​​your​​ ​​teeth Cheekbones​​ ​​that​​ ​​shine​​ ​​like​​ ​​diamonds​ Oh​​ ​​darkness, ​​ I​​ ​​am​​ ​​nerveless Eyes​​ ​​closed​​ ​​for​​ ​​lack​​ ​​of​​ ​​purpose or lack​​ ​​of​​ ​​light​​ Or​​ ​​fear​​ ​​that​​ ​​I’ll​​ ​​lose​​ ​​it Or​​ ​​fear​​ ​​that​​ ​​I’ll​​ ​​lose​​ ​​it Or​​ ​​fear​​ ​​that​​ ​​I’ll​​ ​​lose​​ ​​it Or​​ ​​fear​​ ​​that​​ ​​I’ll​​ ​​lose​​ ​​it Or​​ ​​fear​​ ​​that​​ ​​I’ll​​ ​​lose​​ ​​it You’ve​​ ​​never​​ ​​felt​​ ​​sorry​​ ​​at​​ ​​all You’ve​​ ​​never​​ ​​felt​​ ​​sorry​​ ​​at​​ ​​all You’ve​​ ​​never​​ ​​felt​​ ​​sorry​​ ​​at​​ ​​all You’ve​​ ​​never​​ ​​felt​​ ​​sorry​​ ​​at​​ ​​all The​​ ​​person​​ ​​you​​ ​​made​​ ​​yourself​​ ​​out​​ ​​to​​ ​​be​ Would​​ ​​feel​​ ​​sorry​​ ​​for​​ ​​what​​ ​​you have​​ ​​done​​ ​​to​​ ​​me​ Like​​ ​​scrapped​​ ​​sheet​​ ​​metal​​ ​​shaves​ ​ivories​ You​​ ​​started​​ ​​out​​ ​​slow​​ ​​but​​ ​​you​​ ​​cut​​ ​​your​​ ​​teeth​ You​​ ​​cut​​ ​​your​​ ​​teeth
