A Perfect Smile And Broken Wings

I turned my eyes away from you
But when I looked back
Your smile was still there
Resting on broken wings
I’ll carry you
And the weight of your sins
Along with the demons on my back
Even if I stumble and fall
I’ll live the lines of this book
(this book)
That never ends
Pick me up with bloody hands
I’d give it all for this
This wish
That love will last forever
You tilt your head
To the starlit sky
With one word
I cut us both
We bleed and bleed
Will three words heal these wounds
Forever and ever
Mascara running down your face
I’ll wipe the tears from your eyes
Forever and ever
Will three words heal these wounds
You tilt your head
To the starlit sky
With one word
I cut us both
As we write new chapters to our story
I’ll burn the pages that are your past
And as the wind stirs the ashes anew
Your new
Our new beginning
I turned my eyes away from you
But when I looked back
Your smile was still there
Resting on broken wings
