A few nights ago I fell asleep for about 15 minutes and had a dream. I was lying in a hospital bed, with someone next to me. I couldn’t see his face but I felt an intense love for him and a slight resentment. I remember feeling completely alone and hopeless. I woke up with these words in my head and wrote them down.

Let’s just lie here

Feel out hearts sync up one last time

We can’t look each other in the eye

For fear of collapsing under these half truths and cheap lies

You’ve got me down on the operating table

Reassuring me that it’ll be just fine

But I’m bleeding out and that doctor

He’s just the devil dressed up in white

He said this heart reconstruction

It’s just gonna take some timeĀ 

You’ve got a slim chance of recoverin’

So it’d be best to say your goodbyes

But goddamn, for the chance to feel your love again

Baby, there aren’t enough tears I could cry
