My Ethereal

I don't want to take medicine anymore. I just want to be alright again. Please. (Sports-Clean Socks)

I used to be the person you confided in on a night like this 

I'd wait by the phone to hear about your day 

You'd tell me when you'd come over 

So I knew to get everything done by the time of your arrival 

I'd shower alone 

Let the body absorb 

Sing in the shower 

You were coming home to me 

My one love 

My only desire 

You'd look so exhausted 

And I was ready to clear your head 

Let's get food for your empty stomach 

Let's kiss to destress 

Let's hold hands while you're on your phone 

Sleep on your arm 

Nightmares would creep 

You'd always find ways to make them disappear 

Caress my face 

Kiss this forehead 

Hold this body tighter 

I didn't need medicine 

Because I had you 

Day came 

You'd close the curtain so the rays wouldn't come in

I probably had to go somewhere that day 

And you did, too 

We never moved 

It was always better being home together than anywhere else 

I think this is defeat

It's been almost two months 

John's been mourning for his love for two years 

I think that might be me one day 

Some things you can't help 

You'll tell yourself how much you hate them 

But, at the end of the day 

They were everything you had 

Every f*****g thing was yours. 

Now, you don't even know where they lay there head at night. 

This is me losing sight of you. 

Something I was so afraid of doing.
