Such a lovely day, I think I'll spend it alone.

all dolled up without a ken.
i hate wishing to fall asleep in those arms
because i cant go to sleep until i am.
spoiled by the one with the hole in the wall.
heart running faster than the indy 500.
i might be a criminal but you can be my alibi.
life in slow motion all around me.
were all cogs in a clock that stopped ticking, stopped talk/tocking long ago.
wearing down our so(u)les and ending up where we began.
a million miles to nowhere and all the time in the world.
lets waste it all looking at you looking at me watching me crack under your eyes.
i never was one for compliments.
laugh. shrug it off. turn it around.
i wish i could be as genuine as you (deserve).
truth is im too busy trying to play it cool, to keep from making it sink.
youre a million wishes come true and i implode when youre nearby.
but its the brightest ive shined in a while.
you could keep me if you wanted to.
and i wouldnt even make you ask.
