A Kiss to Tell

We were born on the 5th w/ secrets to tell
whispers of a past lived outside our cell
a haze that was chalked up as chasing a fantasy

cuz nobody leaves

We were raised in the bowels of a wishing well
we wandered the maze as if lost in hell
we ran towards the dawn and were stopped by an endless sea

So we ran to the west and waited for days
a glimpse of the sun and its dying rays
was all that I saw before darkness enveloped me

cuz nobody leaves

She called me up to chat today
I would'a called her anyway
she's a calling me for one last time
its cozy and i need home right now

It doesn't matter what you do
I want it and it's up to you
she's a calling out for one last time
its over cuz we crossed the line

She's a calling out just to say hello
but it's over now
cuz i told her so
yes it's over now
because

I was born on the fifth
the sun is blocked from view
by smoke belching upwards from factory flues
I try to escape but there's nowhere for me to flee

Still a kiss is a breath and the darkess stops
a moment at least til again it drops
I close my eyes tight
as the darkness sweeps over me

cuz nobody leaves
