Austin Lucas Follow

In a whisper voiced an anxious language*
Spoke as if someone else was near
A growl brought my lifeline fever
Your laugh turned to cackle
And humor was sick like the air
Oh you know what I am speaking

Cause the cough that you had could have woken the dead
As the powder kept life in our bodies
Hourglass eyes coldly welcomed the sun
As we prayed for such sleep that'd never come

Watched you poison yourself
Until blood soaked your lips, my dear
And over the years felt the gloom and decay
From marksman, to lying, to corpse at the party
In such clever actions we all have engaged
Glamorous liver failure and collapsed veins
Some had asked me how could you throw it all away
But I know you're just trying to make your way

Watched you poison yourself
