always
what is it to say always
when you can smear it back and forth
i'm not in your steely dream
i reject the words you force
a residue of your always
as it was torn and ripped away
night is the empty, tattered heart
the wasted side of day
when coins jingle in their pockets
chilled fingers lust for sound
what is it to say always
when what you mean is just for now
when you can smear it back and forth
i'm not in your steely dream
i reject the words you force
a residue of your always
as it was torn and ripped away
night is the empty, tattered heart
the wasted side of day
when coins jingle in their pockets
chilled fingers lust for sound
what is it to say always
when what you mean is just for now

i like this one. it's bitter sounding and very powerful, especially with the use of words of such full/dramatic words like "reject", "force", "residue", "wasted", and "lust". and you really made me be able to visualize the image of smearing the promise back and forth until it's blurred or just a smear of what it used to be.
