[T A I N T E D S O N G S]

All the songs you’ve tainted
With your rotten soul
every piece of my heart you’ve touched

every loving word you’ve said
was directed to someone that i know I’m not
a whisper in the wind, futile

every song you’ve sang
will never be the same
because you touched it with your rotten core

i should be directing this message to you
a simple way to pull the trigger
the songs you’ve tainted will never be mine though

cut the rope to fruit gone bad
stop the infection at the core
you love the mold though, don’t you now?

and when i hear
all the words that belonged to you
that the wind carries into my arms

i will wish you weren’t rotten
and i wish you hadn’t
tainted all the songs that are so dear to me
