I'm living in a sandbox, / As i walk and talk, i watch the wind make change to my world, / Painful, awkward change.

Broken
There was a time when idolized the tortured artist. / I now realise that there is a price that must be paid for this new insight into my soul. / I'm no longer equipped with the tools to look after myself.

Nevermore.
Embrace in the light of the streetlamp, nevermore. / Laughter and smiles at my shit jokes, nevermore. / Butterflies when i know you're coming, nevermore.

Moving on, Falling through the net.
I wonder if this week was as horrible and shitty for you, as it was for me.. :/
