Tall Black Trees

Moonlight comes in, filtered through smoke rings
 Next Netflix episode plays
 And that means that maybe you are staying over
 You fell asleep smoking your cigarette
 It started to burn your hair, it smelled fucking awful, but
 That's the only thing that I ever want to smell
 You woke up before me, found my beer cans in the shower
 I would be embarrassed but I sleep in after you for hours
 The morning sun comes in filtered through smoke
 You cooked polenta and mushrooms
 And that's the only thing I ever want to smell
 And I have never felt so overwhelmed and anxious
 I don't think I've ever seen myself so distant and dismissive
 Like when you and I kicked off our shoes, we're standing dancing in your room
 And I know that you're going through some heavy shit right now, but
 I am fucking terrified
 Of all the tall black trees that line
 The road that takes us right behind your wild seeking olive eyes
 And I don't want to wake up
 I don't wanna go to work
 I want to die inside your room
 I don't know how many miles it will take me to escape
 Out of this forest I feel growing up around me
 And I don't know how many burn marks I will leave
 Before this place catches on fire and I burn down my anxiety
 And I am fucking terrified
 Of all the tall black trees that line
 The road that takes us right behind your wild seeking olive eyes
 And I don't want to wake up
 I don't wanna go to work
 I want to die inside your room
