Cold Coffee

Info

It was like taking a sip of cold coffee at midnight

It was a little bitter but it was addicting like smoke

It was a shifting of impressions leaving me in hindsight

It consumes me like a murderer’s choke

This heavy and exciting feeling on my chest

Gives me a fervour amount of rest

Because all I want to do is sit back beside you

Dream one day I’d close my eyes next to you

I don’t care how much late we make up the next day

The cold coffee suits midnight like me and you today

You get wasted on cries while I wasted my time on you

I spill it out like puke when I get wasted too

After this I drink some cold coffee

Even though it hits me nothing I grab onto it like there’s something

And then let go because I was dying

Like me and you

You shed me tears I got nothing

Now I’m the killer just because I’m happier

I’ve changed like cold coffee

It was once warm – but it changed

Like a nice little girl on your puppet show

You move the strings; she smile so bright

But when she opens up her eyes

She’ll let go no matter how you hold her tight

Because when you left a coffee it becomes cold

You did; because she never felt lonelier but when with you

Now it became dust of what once was gold

It was a priceless love that can never be sold

But you threw it away like a useless junk

Now you come here crashing like I’m the only one

Feel me now like a cold coffee

I’ve never been this happy now that I am free
