White Flag Nightly

i've spent years attempting to decipher why exactly it is that it has been years
and tonight i will say it is because no one think or feels anything
and we had the contrary in common
just like how we surround ourselves with people disposable
when we feel like trash
if it is true we thought highly of each other
there is absolutely no indication we will ever again feel worth it


i gave you somewhere to put all of the things you did not want anyone to know
and in exchange you gave me the first sentiment of home
i think i did my best to cut you out once
but it was just too beautiful
so with that white flag paper i ended up with a snowflake
i have been living in those holes
and every night i make the choice to give up on you or me
and giving up on yourself should never be that easy


we have the contrary in common
