Paper Flesh from Cartomantic by Cup of Sun

Paper Flesh

We opened the windows finally
the rain breathed
the air heaved
and we slept backs facing
naked beneath
crimson sheets
bleeding and healing in the night sky
I know I'll never understand
so I don't wonder why
we were wasted
hearts breaking
a glass of water
slowly evaporating

now the cold rush
it can't touch us
so we drove to the ocean bloodlust
you picked up
piles of sand in your hands
and said "we are just stardust expanding"
I kicked up stones with my toes
and sat there frozen
another man broken
I kicked up stones with my toes
and sat there frozen
another man broken

you were everything I wanted and I knew I was leaving
I opened up my chest and my heart stopped beating
you were everything I wanted and I knew I was leaving
I opened up my chest and my heart stopped beating
my lungs stopped breathing my heart stopped beating

you were everything I wanted and I knew I was leaving
I opened up my chest and my heart stopped beating

cuz I'm easier to love on paper then in flesh
so I'll keep in touch till later when I see you next
I'm easier to love on paper than in flesh
so don't do me any favors when I'm off again traveling
don't do many any favors cuz I'm off again
off again
