Align

Elusive
You don't tread a heavy footprint
Until alcohol's in movement round our circles
Now this thought comes through, this light is new

Intentions - hard to read
Indications. Pulling teeth
Draw you out with forceps
Car doors to doorsteps

Your face was faded, colours drained
Give me a week and I reach the same
Intoxicated. Breath baited
At our worst and frustrated

I can't stand this interlude
Chasing days catching up to you
Checking on the socials if we're going to run
Into each other for a run-in, running out of

Patience
These nights I keep on wasting
And I'm the one that hastens round, my thoughts unwound
I sat you up, you let me down

Phone calls you won't receive
Forcing words when I'm in grief
Cos I'm a mess for many reasons
Struggling with this particular season

Leave me on read and you send me to blue
And it greys my head already lacking hue
Should intertwine but we can't align
In this state of my design

I can't stand this interlude
Chasing days catching up to you
Checking on the socials if we're going to run
Into each other for a run-in, running out of time

Got to keep these embers burning bright
And if tonight is not the night then answer me right
