The numbness spreads
from heart to head...

I'm destruction and anguish
A thing to be feared...

I slip quietly from conversations
to taste the lonely air outside...

I saw my mother struggle
with the tears that filled her eyes...

If you take out all the anger
And you lay it on your skin...

It's dangerous
Finding substitutes for love...

(possible trigger warning)
It used to be I didn't sleep...

I am a star, collapsing
For far too long I've played pretend...

It curls its mitts around my throat
And threads its doubts into my veins...

I desire vengeance
an atonement for the sin...

The edge of the world is close to my house
I go there on walks quite often...

Each grain of sand went sifting through the others
And as I ran, I barely heard the thunder...
