I propel the mallet through the air To land bluntly on my hand But still I feel no freeing pain And I continue to be ****** To a world of expired meaning And a body where I cannot feel So I search for my forgotten drive By drawing blood and skipping meals At times it becomes too much to bear The weight of bearing nothing So I shield myself from expecting hearts And turn to the one thing loving A silver knife with a glistening grin “I’m always here if you need me” And once again I propel the blade And finally find feeling

Propel
I propel the mallet through the air To land bluntly on my hand But still I feel no freeing pain And I continue to be ****** To a world of expired meaning And a body where I cannot feel So I search for my forgotten drive By drawing blood and skipping meals At times it becomes too much to bear The weight of bearing nothing So I shield myself from expecting hearts And turn to the one thing loving A silver knife with a glistening grin “I’m always here if you need me” And once again I propel the blade And finally find feeling
