outgoing - headhaunter lyrics

headlights p-ssing tinged the scene with pink colors/
that painted her still life on the screens of cinemas/
doves scr-ped off skies like cream would sing of us/
while i stared at their bright time freezing wing flutters/
i was melting so senseless, so dead to all things/
but she anch0r-d me to realism with her soft skin/
lent an ear to all my problems and let me crawl in/
with a comfort not akin to what those other broads bring/
it was autumn on the cusp of that december depression/
when inertia taught revenge as a lesson/
but it all started to unravel half a month ago/
on a halcyon monday when a coffee mug had broke/
she was standing there with both her pale hands unmoved/
with fear to match her absolute shock, all paid for/
with a loud explosion of uncalculated magnitude/
and green ceramic fragments strewn across the hallway floor/
tipped with secrecy and answers like, “i’m fine/
i’ve just been such a klutz, i promise i’m alright”/
and she went in the kitchen, flipped the light switch on/
and i swear i saw her fl!cker in sync with the bulb/

and so it goes, when you feel the strings unravelling/
when the the skin starts crackling and all you know/
has all begun vanishing, it’s all off balance and/
you fall and fall, you fall and fall/

staring at blue ripples of dim light up on the ceiling/
exiting a dream, while losing count of times it had repeated/
i upheaved my face to see her silhouette in the room/
she was on her phone, the glow was firing pestilent hues/
i said something to break the ample silence/
and she spun around startled slightly as our eyes met/
the glow spiralled up like a spotlight catching diamonds/
as her phone plunged with a thud that was seismic/
but it didn’t fumble from her fingers like she said in the moment/
i could see it crystal clear how it really unfolded/
it fell through her hands like they didn’t exist/
and phased through her skin like some intricate trick/
so she broke down with sapphire tears streaming down/
she was saying she was sorry and she feared speaking out/
scared of disappearing for good in an instant/
she looked like she meant it when the weird petered out/
we talked until normality had snuck into the bedroom/
with a false sense of gravity that loves to misdirect you/
she started sinking quickly through the hardwood floor/
one, then two legs screaming au revoir/
i shot my hand out to catch her and felt nothingness/
a feeling that could not be captured with an simple utterance/
i could barely comprehend feeling my lover dissolve/
but chased the noise down the steps to see her slumped at the door/
she was pushing herself up with hands that weren’t there/
tears ran down partial cheekbones with scant auburn hair/
and there were faint echoes of her voice flitting nowhere/
as she mouthed the words “i’m sorry”, in the choked air/
it was cold, she was there and then she wasn’t/
no dramatic flair and not fully aware of what resulted/
the door swung open, i saw birds of pink colors/
for a while i stared at their time burning wing flutters/
