Fishnet-

Paper backs and love attacks
Peeled and pulled from whole worlds
Slurs of cocaine on porcelain
Badly laced with skin and lips
Busses full of babies
And no place to hide.

Mutiny-

Decide it's time to pick yourself from his drug infested eyes
Vandalized girls in the street
Pretty in a filmstrip behind the wall
Pale woman flesh when you need to say my name
In graffiti wrapped in snow
Winter whispers dust onto your tongue
He can't love the untouched.

Midnight-

Disorders from a beautiful mind
Bitten twice and left alive
Ammunition past adrenaline
Dirty footprints on her face
And teeth in her eyelids
Divided, counting space between her knees
Circles round her feet
All she wanted was another heartbeat.

Platinum-

Laced with lipstick from another fantasy
Lead lips and binging on the skin he left behind
Building green fed with flames
Bruised faces you wore so well
When chapped lips held cigarettes
And there was no end to the men in your bed.

Love Seat-

Sober summers living in my eyelids
Burning futures behind you
Tie me to the sand with wires from your mouth
Ashtrays washed to shores
And I will let you find me.

Prom-

Greatest hits and backseat trips
Swallow fate and kiss the grey in his eyes
Now we're all alone
She speaks with sweets inside your tongue
And she threw mascara rain into the mud
We sprinkled dust onto the driver
Now he gives her words with wings
And he spreads them in between
And now we're all alone.
