Perfectly Dysfunctional

We've been the train sided out and broken up 
The body left to decompose beneath the brush 
We've seen each others blood tasted the salt of one another's sweat 
We've been each others jail we've been each others escape 
We've been each others hell we've been each others heaven 
When did this run off the rails? 
Where did we go wrong? 

I can't just lie to you and claim not to crave dysfunction 
I can't just lie to you and tell you IM alright 
I can't lie to myself and pretend that I just can't remember 
Because IM reminded every time I see the scars that dress my skin 

Together we would lilt through a life shared 
Though summery an incipient nightmare 
More than some dalliance to leave two woebegone and torn 
We rolled the dice and lost so now 
We'll survive off the orts 
Though of tragedy a beauteous mistake is often born 

Like a days first breath like the smell of petrichor so fresh 
It once left us wanting more 
But now there's only the 
Ashes of love notes to dirty the hearth 
But not I'm not so sure 

hate built from [bad word] each others lives up 
Inured to a sinking ship still polishing the brass 
For everything I may become ill forever credit you 
Because no matter what whether good or bad it was together that we made it through 
(it is together that well make it through.)
