The last time I saw Beirut,
a full moon was curbing its rooftops...
A door left open
Might only be an invite...
I have given up so much time.
removing pieces of me...
The sound of church bells
cheered from the belfry...
When I hear the sirens,
I pray they're for me...
It's hard to believe,
I'm alone in this bed...
An ashen veil of night removes the light
as beauty takes her leave and still I grieve...
I hide myself away
Like a knight in shining armour...
Fear this
This emptiness that’s in your heart...
I know it's been a while now
Since I last saw your face...
Where do I start
Should it be the place where I broke your heart...
This one way road to nowhere
feeds your narcissistic need...
