Black Guy Fawkes - 23%

Half of this decade I spent inside my head
Just Waging wars
Upon All these paragraphs on
Parchment paper that I tore
But I've finally found the words I
I need the both of us to hear
There's so much of you I love
And so much of me I fear

I threw rocks outside your window
Hoping you could guide me home
I thought it was my casket
But it's only when I'm not alone

I spilled out these dilapidated guts
Inside a parking lot and the trail
It led me straight to you
When I searched and I searched for
What's a boy to do

We sold souls for second chances
We stole kisses like a crime
We took risks on broken hearts but
We gave reason to this rhyme
Now the weight of this whole world
I could carry with ease
Even with these heavy arms
And even with these weakened knees

Lost inside of coffee talks
And drunk of smiles and laughter
Only made one thing sure
For once in my life, I felt

Life went on
We drove all night until the dawn
But the sunrise
Showed off all the tears in your eyes
And I said I'll be
Whatever you want me to be
Even if you don't need me

Now this evening is slowly dying
Alongside my broken phone
I hope one day you will answer
And I'm more than just a ringtone

I am sorry for my actions.
But I'm grateful for our days
I just want our final chapter
To not be a bad cliché

I had to learn the hard way
There's no happily ever after
But stories still end for the best
So I hope you know
Even with these broken bones
That I still hold you close to my chest
