Funeral For A Friend (Nice To Meet You)A Poem by Travis PrinoI'll whisper sweet nothings in your ear just promise not to cry tonight and I don't know your name but I swear I recognize your face in the moonlight and you're running but you don't know what you are running from or where you're running to so I'll hold your hand and I know that we will make it through if I don't kill you first this is a funeral for a friend that I haven't even met I'll drag you so far deep down you can't refrain from screaming out I'll place this blade into your back then cut your spinal cord in half you'll fall upon your bloody knees but you've become used to the tease this is a funeral for a friend so let me introduce myself I'll whisper sarcastic lies in your ear and you'll believe every word of it you fell for me but I never really fell for you I just said I did you ran for your life and you landed yourself in my arms but not in my heart so I'll ease your pain with the words I know you want to hear then I'll disappear this is a funeral for a friend that I haven't even met I'll drag you so far deep down you can't refrain from screaming out I'll place this blade into your back then cut your spinal cord in half you'll fall upon your bloody knees but you've become used to the tease this is a funeral for a friend so let me introduce myself you're just another check mark on my bedpost I'm just another valuable lesson from an invaluable host you're just another notch on my belt I took you by the neck and dragged you through hell you're just another name upon my list I'm just another a*****e who played you for sex you're just another stain in my sheets I made you feel beautiful then left you feeling cheap this is a funeral for a friend that I haven't even met I'll drag you so far deep down you can't refrain from screaming out I'll place this blade into your back then cut your spinal cord in half you'll fall upon your bloody knees but you've become used to the tease this is a funeral for a friend so let me introduce myself and now you wish you never met me wish you could forget me but wishing doesn't get you very far. © 2019 Travis Prino |
