There are times when
The hands can’t quite grasp the numbers
The voices which you’ve become so accustomed to going silent
Confidence, well …that’s the only thing holding you
To any bit of ego …god …attitude
Whatever you want to call it
That tiny string that gives a reason to continue
When you’re less willing to.
But you want to be strong …it’s a momentary lapse in reason that’s all
So distracted by clouds, you’ve forgotten
What really ails you.
Then
Magic …a holiday, to put it all in
…perspective?
You’re alone
And you want to be because you think something’s wrong with you
“How messed up must you be that no one will claim you”
It’s far from the truth but it resonates deeply.
Yes the Mayans were correct
A shift did occur and I’m right on the rift
I don’t’ really care anymore
This mind is soiled with the past and there’s no changing that
However, I can use my unresolved pain
Uncensored anger
Undying love, to create something beautiful
Even if it’s just crap and emotional garbage to me
At some point, it will be wonderful because it shine a light on the truth
And the truth is………………
Pause
WHO AM I SUPPOSED, TO TELL THE TRUTH TO?
When I try to care enough, not to bring others into the pit I’m in
This shallow grave, walking tomb
Slave? To the ways of our so-called evils.
but I was happy once… was I not?
if so where is that stage in my regression
What …am I living Jobs story now,
What is this path on which you have led me?
My bones and teeth are brittle
Mind fragile
Heart??
Do I have it still, shall I smoke it or bleed out…
Is this because I thought something was wrong with me
No… This started long before I had any notion of altering my mind for love
WHAT IS IT!!!
Pause
Maybe, I have locked myself away for too long and isolation has taken its toll.
No, I won’t be killing myself today
Maybe I should off you because it’s my faith in you that gives me such agony
No, you’re not there
You’re not my father; you took him away along with my mother.
If you ARE …Why, have YOU, forsaken ME
Pause
The man on television just said …
“I have every right to be unhappy”
Pause
No sis I won’t let go … It took me much too long to find you, to find someone to share my feelings
But, that act is not cowardly to my understanding
Pause
I am not as unhappy as this appears notes
…just, a moment of truth
Which I feel needs to be stated from time to time
…even the strongest MUST
Breakdown
FIN
