my mind is revolting garbage
and it seems i have gotten under your fingernails;
and i know how this goes, you've been spending all night trying to get me out
and youve been pulling your hair
over the things i said to you...
i know that i make you sick
and no matter how many times you try to hide it
ive seen you on the bathroom floor.
when you kiss me i find my way into your blood stream
and I start attacking your pathogens..
eventually I'll shut down your nervous system
and end up eating away at your heart.
i know what i do to you.
it just who i am, it's just what i do.
don't take it personally.
so this will be the one and only time that i urge you to leave darling,
take what you need from me and go
i know i have already stolen too much time and too many years of your life from you..
don't you worry
and
don't you dare look back
ill be able to make due with my own company from now on and until the day i die
tell me you love me
give me a kiss goodbye
and save yourself
i understand
please
just
show me a bit of kindness before you go
and before my bones pick themselves up and leave.
before i shed my shell.
before i die.
i just want to feel weightless one last time
before i destroy myself.
