Unmelting lies
Gotta lose track of tomorrowGotta treasure what you’re made of
To all the days with words cutting like knives
I will say goodbye this time
Inside a cup of cold black tea
Lies leak out, hard to melt away
And my half-eaten confectionery
Is still looking for you, but you’re not here
Even if I counted to ten, I got to make it there
I’m just telling you our distance is kinda wrong
All the promises we’ve made ain’t what I’m fond of
And there’s no guarantee that they’ll come true
I lied and hurt you again
But I’m wishing you a tomorrow
Drink your sigh back and move forward
So your happiness won’t take flight
Count to ten and open your eyes
I’ll be gone while you’re doing
I shouldn’t have made all these promises
Come on, girl, are you smiling now?
Let me forget our verbal promises once and for all
Because my memory’s got only so much space
Yeah I’m ready to tear off your damn little finger entwined with mine
In flashbacks, I’ll ask you something
Your voice is asking me something
A counting rhyme can stab me for only ten minutes
My hand joined in yours is questioning your sense of feeling
Don’t you remember it? We’re no more
Nothing but strangers, strangers stained red, and that’s what we are *
You can cut off a liar’s tongue
If there’s only one wish that comes true, I’ll give it all to you
So make your own wish
This I’m giving you
Giving you
