Work Text:
My heart lays bare
In the broken mirror
Bones and stones and twigs
Detritus of the human race
Underneath my skin
Blood beaten muscle
Weary limbs, brain fed, cannot stop
I close the door and lock you out
But still you knock
Beating and battered
To reach my heart
I open my eyes
I go back to the start
Lock the door and hide the key
Inside a fortress made of lies
And a firewall
That you burn to the ground
Whenever you're near
My last defense
A lie, a sigh
I will not give in
I must not
Give
I dance
And dance around you
Around us
Oh, how beautiful a lie
You and I
You and I
Can Never Be
