Zombies
By LDB

The day my heart fell was the day I met you
Crashing, like the peaking waves in the LCD were true
But I was dead when I met you and first held your hand
Alcohol and addiction fresh in my system; its there you understand

Zombie eyes reflecting at me between the cracks of my bathroom mirror
The scars are prominant and the smile lines are getting clearer
Im getting dizzy in the coldness of your vacant hurricane madness
Your storm made me a captive of my self-loathing sadness

You’re a fading signal between the crashing waves of unrequited lotalty
Freezing here, in the eternal summer emptiness filled only by memories
You left me with bad dreams, open wounds, and insecurities
But I’m so thankful that you’re gone; i’m proud of myself for staying strong

I’m an addict in every single possible way, and the closing walls are bleeding in my cage
I brave a smile as the scars deepen and the smile lines display my premature age
Sometimes I wish I could disapear into those waves of darkness all over again
But as you fade into stories and distant memories, I’ve found a brighter face where love begins
