joining
systems to pointing
and notwithstanding
not ordinary
feeling alone
and feeling left out
this is the way that it's meant to be

feeling
we feel like healing
with alike voices
colorful noises
feeling fatigue
and feeling empty
is this is the way that it's meant to be?

squirming like her words
were slipped and slurred undeterred
vibrating strings repeat
fear begets absentees
when i depart
please point my body towards the sun

if i throw my whole life away
is that enough for you? just for you
there is no one left to blame
i will take this weight
i will follow you

will i wait for a better day
a smile on my face? on your face
if i shed my skin to hide
where I've been am i
still the me i chose?

one two three

flavor
of human nature
but sugar-coated
going unnoticed
feeling that pain
with nothing to gain
is this the way that it's meant to be?

sent for betterment
a testament never meant
four on the floor
or so the order orients
when i depart
please point my body toward the sun

if i throw my whole life away
is that enough for you? just for you
there is no one left to blame
i will take this weight
i will follow you

avert your gaze!
distort the static in your brain!
misconstrue it so you don’t see the message that it brings!
or so I hoped it wasn’t just me
how many bones will I break
how much of my body will they take
before there’s nothing to excruciate
it gets so cold at night
please eat all my dreams

if i throw my whole life away
is that enough for you? just for you
there is no one left to blame
i will take this weight
i will follow you
to each their own
