Arby, I Love You

from Vestigialist by Liam Kingsley

lyrics

I used to love like that postcard you sent:
worn out and ragged, romantic and bent,
desperate to reach you to let you know when
I’d return to pick up where I left.

I used to give away portions of me,
hand them to strangers I’d pass on the street,
and I still remember how broken I’d be
when they wouldn’t give themselves back to me.

I met a woman whose head was on fire.
I embraced her too tightly and quickly expired.
Well, you know that she warned me if you get too close you’ll get lit,
so I crossed my heart and jumped off the cliff.

I’m probably wrong, but I feel like I’ve changed.
The blood in my sink’s just an oral mistake.
When our skins sting with day-glo I won’t be afraid
to say, “You’re alright. I’m alright. We’re okay.”

Arby, I love you like Jesus loves wine.
I won’t die without you. I won’t be divine,
and your toes, yea, your fingers, the function just fine,
but they feel awfully holy in mine.
