This one is older. Found it in an old journal the other day.

You know, when our paths cross today
No words exist that I could say
I looked in your eyes,
You’d gone away
-
You hit me with threats,
You hit me with lies
But you would never hit me between the eyes
-
Trapped in my own righteousness
I followed convention
Spiraling to this
-
No words exist that I can say
I’ve seen your eyes
You’ve gone away
-
You lived to allege
You lived to confuse
But you would never leave a single bruise
-
No words exist that I can say
I tore and broke
We both died that day
-
You know, where our paths crossed today
No words exist that I could say
Did you even look at me?
Could you really even see?
That a couple killers are all we can be
-
You’ll blame me
They’ll blame you
It doesn’t mean that either’s true
-
No words exist that I can say
But you left me with a single way
The deed is done
We died that day.
