He plays himself
With a mask like soaked clay
And faux tears on-command,
All you can do to cope with the hindsight
Is to say you were brave for sticking with it
When you weren't brave enough for the alternative,
Voice like a whisky-croak and words that
Ring of sweet nothings but really mean nothing at all.
Blood on the carpet. Never coming off
And never failing to remind you of what you did and didn't
do wrong.
You figured you'd make boredom into something
Less important but the meaning of any philosophy
Is dependant on the day and the weight of the past it carries--
**** it
Bassline stranded on the boderline, that is to say
Stuck and unfixable. That's part of growing, right?
Dealing with it and moving on, forming a character
From a tortuous pantomine; doing the impossible in
Ameliorating light strictly with the tools given to you
by the dark room you were raised in. Rise or sink.
It was out of your hands, your actions moving forward
Is all that has to matter now.
Just hold on until tomorrow.
