There are veins above my eyes
And the blood they contain will get bluer
Every time I cover them with color
But it hurts much less to hide

And as the colder longer nights
Steal away our light
I think if you were here
I'd have a reason to stay alive

But there are legends to create
And you must leave me behind
I will only slow you down
And make it harder for your broken soul to survive

So please
Before my eyes tell you to stay
Get in your car
And tell yourself to drive

And before you watch me fade away
Kiss me fast and say it is not goodbye
But I felt your lips
I felt them and I knew it was a lie

So get in your car
And tell yourself to drive
