Two Shots

Before we took the paintings off the wall
I’d come up with a reason just to call
Before my shoulders sterile to the touch
Adore you but you’re asking way too much

I won’t
Won’t stop
Hesitating
When you hold my hand
My friend
My friend
My friend
Two shots
One chance
Asphyxiated
Did you hold me back
Might have
Might have
Might have

Before I started stuttering my words
I’d recognise the singing of the birds
I'm glad you found a way to have some fun
I’ll be out front come find me when you’re done

I won’t
Won’t stop
Hesitating
When you hold my hand
My friend
My friend
My friend
Two shots
One chance
Asphyxiated
Did you hold me back
Might have
Might have
Might have
