And it goes back
Something like a strange melody
I can’t place it
What do you want from me?
What do you want from me?
Something in my spirit
I cannot save you, its not within me
But i want you to be alive
And i want you to be happy
And i don’t know how to reconcile these two things
If being alive makes you unhappy
If being alive makes you unhappy
They say life is a magic trick
You disapear in a puff of smoke
You release your stress in a puff of smoke
Or so i’m told
You watch videos of sex and violence
Because its the only thing your skin can feel anymore
Youre addicted to vaping
You have daddy issues
And im here watching the whole thing go up in flames
What can i do to help a dying world
What can i do to help a dying person
A living eulogy to hold hands with
A forgetable memory i can’t seem to recall
And here in the reeds
I feel disgusting
I hate what i feel and i hate what i think about
And i think about you
I think about you way too god damn much
And i don’t know what to do about it
I don’t know what to do about it
Oh valley creature
You’re the only one who understands me
How much of myself do i see in you?
And how much of my skin do i wear just for show?
But its the show that keeps me going
The perception, the all knowing
The middle ground that dictates
How you act around certain people
In your bedroom, by the steeple
And if i can control that i can control everything
But what if i’m losing ground
What if i’m losing you
What if i’m losing everything
Something in his eyes
Something in her words
I stop and think
There’s an audience behind me
Do i even have the strength to say?
No, no
Not today
