Possible Songs

"'I do not exist,' we faithfully insist." Are the whispers from my demons sitting quietly alone.
I struck a match with open hand, to burn the bridges to the land. It'll take more work to mend than anyone would know.
Coins and marbles flood the floor, as I run out of the door.  "Another drink or two?"  They insist, "it wouldn't be a chore."
If I've made my way from sea, then what anchor could this be?  Keeps me treading water 50 feet from shore.

I do not exist, it is only You which do. I am not but shadow cast of a man I never knew.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

These modest mutterings were inspired from lyrics written by Aaron Weiss for the song "Messes of Men" (which may have been inspired from other sources as well). (http://genius.com/Mewithoutyou-messes-of-men-lyrics)

These words were uttered at a time where I felt more mess than man.
