lyrics

6 AM. the taste of cheap whiskey and stale cigarettes still ripe on the breath
and it's just dark enough that one could almost make believe they were anywhere in the world.
the sound of coffee drips into a pot and the sound lines up with heartbeats, moments,
and the occasional realization of one's own mortality.
I imagine the afterward to be a whole lot like that.
Just less confusing. No more whiskey nights or bad dreams,
like opening a door to a perfect nothing,
and closing the last one behind you
as if the cigarettes and the whiskey
were the only things worth remembering.

They're not, of course,
but it's just dark enough to make believe you could be anywhere in the world
but not yet dark enough to make believe
you could be nowhere at all.

even if you are.
sometimes

and even when I'm not.
Grace comes in the form of skin,
words in the form of tooth and sweat

gentle reminders that I'm cared about
not easily forgotten or replaced
and as the harsh rays of light
seep in through the underside of the door,
illuminated by fresh snowfall and
large uncovered windows,

it's now just after seven-thirty
and I don't need to make believe
because where I am
is where I ought to be

and there's still plenty of whiskey in the bottle
half a pack of smokes and
someone in my bed that
refuses to
give up
on me.
