I feel it creeping, seeping in,
It chokes my heart it sears my skin
No face exists to take your place,
To fill an aching void with grace
The dark does ease these wandering eyes,
But in it shines the truth of lies
I look at you, my insides shatter,
In your world I don’t matter
You left my nerves dispersed; in tatters
But I am more than mounds of matter
Physically is where you’re lost,
And deep inside I pay the cost
I shut off my voice of depth,
To sadly ponder what I’ve left
Expectation leads to disappointment,
But that’s my one and pure enjoyment
Do you think it’s sick? Because it’s true,
I’m trying to get inside of you
Silent words blur my vision,
Articulate with such precision,
It mangles your heart to make decisions,
So you left me dying in this prison
A prison hollow, a prison round,
Where I can scream but there’s no sound
A prison built with silent walls,
So I can crawl down empty halls
I must relay,without delay
About the words you’ll never say,
I must report the price you’ll pay,
Forever’s just a single day
I have motives for all I do,
That’s one thing that’s just not true
My fake world doesn’t spin for you
Don’t ask why, or what, or who,
I said it one, I’ll say it two,
My fake world doesn’t spin for you
I’ll be honest, you’ve kept it spinning
But that’s no good, I’m not winning
So I’ll surrender to this despair,
I’ll whine and moan ‘life’s not fair’
I’ll tell my insides I don’t care
I must deal with what’s been dealt,
What I feel has now been felt
And if a thought of you remains,
I’ll let it go by which it came
Today’s a day and they’re all the same
I’m me, you’re you, we’re not the same
Intense and hauntingly
Intense and hauntingly relevant. Just beautiful.
