your violet eyelids opened to say "here's where you've been"
your lips open to say "my darling it's been so very long and i'm in pain" sometimes i picture all your fingers
sometimes they're crawling down my spine
sometimes they're buttoning your jacket
sometimes you're far but you're still mine
i know that it is raining
and i know that the rain will soak you through
and leave you like the tattered sky
i know i go in circles
i know that window panes bring only rain and not your face

Your heart doesn't belong to me
I know I don't have the right to bug you with how this feels
It's just the hardest thing I've been through
Nothing's ever felt so real
And on this Sunday night you'll be making love to him
I know because you told me
I'm never going to win
Your heart doesn't belong to me
The blood is not on your hands
It's not your fault that I write these things at night
I brought it on myself
I deserve this
I deserve this
I deserve this
Do I really deserve this?
