Perfume

Your perfume is chaos
That lingers behind you
It's your darkest side

If I stay invisible
Blending into the wall
You feel more secure

Any gesture of greeting
Is from afar, no touch

We seem like two signs
Trying hard to shine

You don’t have to come back
To hurt me
It’s not enough just to have a part

We couldn’t say goodbye
So annoyed while we spoke
And listening from a distance

Even if it were reversible
Why go back?
We’d do the same thing

Dazed by the noise
We let ourselves be swept away
Your perfume isn’t mine anymore
But it wraps me up once more
