Go home

Band of gold with a diamond implied
You wrote letters that you never 
sent
I made promises I'll always deny
Now we'll never know what the other

Our fears are only what we tell them
 to be
Our fears are only what we tell them
 to be

Drown the last of our matches
Am
Burn the rest of each other

finally smother

Young bone

Old ghosts
