Happy Christmas, broken people,
I hope the world feels better
When the snow has fallen
And the birds stop singing
Because the world just gets
So *quiet.

It feels like I'm finally learning how to breathe without you.

Shouldn't being the minority make you kinder?
You've known misery, at the hands of the big fish;
The small and unknown get crushed.
But you find your ground and burn your way out
With guns and bombs and *fear.
terrorism is so nice, ain't it?

You're mouthing along to a song
That holds a memory for you,
And in this moment, I love you
More than I understand;
More than you comprehend.

I spread my wings towards the sky;
My arms lift as the wind rips through me.
I am too high up, I am not high enough.
A gasp of the pre-storm sky sends me spiralling upwards,
But the higher I get, the more the skin peels away
from my bones like paper.

I can't tell you that this life is fair,
I cannot give you all the answers
In this ridiculous and repulsive world,
But I can help you find the answers
That fit your universe, if you want.
