Holding my breath waiting for the sunset, wondering how other people sit so still.
Holding my breath until I start to slip into a place where I can process.
How do we even begin to wrestle with the banality of this fucked up so called life?
Oh, but my days are as dark as my nights.
Birthing my lackluster dreams the glorious gift of sight.
All we know by now is waiting for the dirt
To sow us back into the earth.

Truly picturesque the images of beauty and success that fall weightless out of your hands.
I can’t wait to see you fail.
It makes me sick to feel this way.
I’ll add it to my list “The reasons I’m a piece of shit,”
At least almost all the time I’m honest with it.
It makes me sick to feel this way.
Please don’t go, I need you here.
I want to watch you
because you’re just doing so well and we’re all so proud.

It’s not enough to see the whites of our eyes,
Hold our breath and take one more step.
You may not remember me
There’s really nothing new to see
I wouldn’t blame you because
There’s nothing new to say.
Really? “I guess” or maybe “oh, yeah!”
There’s nothing new to say.
One more step.
Bottles in front of mirrors, inside of one of us for the last eight years.
We are fine.
The situation’s easy to neglect.
This time
We’ll turn into someone that they’ll forget.
It’s not enough to see the whites of our eyes.
I’ll crawl into the drawer of my desk
And lay with pens and brushes that have only seen rest.
There’s nothing new to say.

We’ve buried everything else.
Repainting memories.
Sometimes I wish I wished it could be
How it was when I wanted to stay.
I can’t wait to look back on yesterday
Just knowing it never gets better.
I can’t find a way to say
You won’t stay
Can't find a way, the way I can say
Keep opening graves, again and again
I can't be so brave, keep seeing my name
Written on the page, and well
I don’t know
We beg.
We’re begging for change.
Complacently return to earth with our hands up.
We’re begging for change with our hands up.
