every star in your sky condensed before my eyes.
burned into my memory like my mother's face.
what was once where my love fell to demise,
never before have i seen, like benten such a place
benten square. the neon lights make me numb.
we were quite young when we first met.
i wish it was different. i'm a pill on your tongue
bitter as my own trouble. I still feel reparations yet.
you'll never tell me you love me ever
i wish i'd never made mistakes or lied
it felt like a bulldozer
trying to catch a butterfly.
for nights long dreams my heart is yearning
the neon lights of benten burning.
