like all your **** as if you are the one
i can hear in your heart and your mind that you're done
i want you to see me like more than dead weight
boy nothing on my end but leftover faith

we died just after the start of march
and the sun was rising
spring was born

i found beauty in loss
i'm still in your heart and
you in mine

i'm ashamed to say i feel weakness
when you cross my mind but i
wouldn't have it any other way

outstanding odds know no bounds -
they dance and uproot the trees in
my mind, they tear up my boots as
i pass by

losing skin and muscle until i am
merely bone they sing and scream
to me, making beautiful songs from
the lyrics in my head

a more foolish me would
change his definition of happiness
to trick himself into loving you

full offense but
i will never fit in
i will never be valued
by who i want to be

on two feet i run
and go nowhere

i spend breath and
get none back

and if it must be said
i am over it

we will ride the red surf
oil for blood
stories in souls untold

i wait years for you to leave me and
i'm blown away when you finally do
because my idiot mind cannot
see the past and act upon it

i should have never gotten into this mess
i want to say
but i know i'd be lying

because i loved it
and now i miss it

you are a tapestry and when i touch you my fingers come away
dripping with thick oil

each night i see your finest threads turn to ropes of gasoline;
you are a spark away from going up in flames

i want to drop a match

i want to see you burn
