lyrics

terrified by her gaze
that goddamned look upon her face
when she pulled me aside
she began to say
we’ve been faking it for weeks
so don’t bother trying to speak
because i’ve already packed my things

true love doesn’t want to talk
she just wants it all to stop
so she keeps moving
and malice mumbles every word
before she writes another verse

but who are we kidding?
no one’s winning

stared down an empty room
started drinking her perfume
started burning every picture
i had left of you
found some whiskey in the drawer
so i poured it on the floor
started wondering what i
was even drinking for

borrowed time it doesn’t stop
it just runs out the clock
until there’s no victory
now we’re speeding on to death
trying to cherish all that’s left
but who are we kidding
no one’s winning

Young Elk is Ezekiel J Rudick, Tony Reyes, Bruce Reed, and Nic Moen
