We can stick anything into the fogand make it look like a ghostbut tonightlet us not become tragedies.We are not funeral homeswith propane tanks in our windows,lookin_ like cemeteries.Cemeteries are just the Earth__ way of not letting go.Let go.Tonightlet__ turn our silly wrists so far backwardsthe razor blades in our pencil tipscan__ get a good angle on all that beauty inside.Step into thiswith your airplane parts.Move forwardand repeat after me with your heart:__ no longer need you to fuck me as hard as I hated myself.__ake love to melike you know I am betterthan the worst thing I ever did.Go slow.I__ new to this.But I have seen nearly every city from a rooftopwithout jumping.I have realizedthat the moondid not have to be full for us to love it,that we are not tragediesstranded here beneath it,that if my heartreally brokeevery time I fell from loveI__ be able to offer you confetti by now.But hearts don__ break,y__ll,they bruise and get better.We were never tragedies.We were emergencies.You call 9 _ 1 _ 1.Tell them I__ having a fantastic time.

It__ just that I coulda swore you had sung me a love song back there and that you meant it but I guess sometimes people just chew with their mouth open

Make love to melike you know I am better than the worst thing I ever did.
