Fault Lines

The blues in my eyes
turn to black.
My chapped lipped lies
hit me right back.
I can't shake the picture
you painted by mistake
and no amount of liquor
can numb away the ache.
A fault line in my chest
that was always almost breaking
and a love never confessed
so my voice was always faking
made a mess of my insides
and a hell of my weak heart.
So I'll slip under your tides
while we breathe so far apart.
