If I wrote a song about me The intro would be a happy melody. I’d miss a couple chords Hum some notes a little too sharp But it’s okay The first verse would be laughter Dancing through the sun’s rays White keys beneath my fingers Playing the major The second verse would fog over minor notes bleeding through each wrong sound a confession I prayed no one would hear The chorus would unravel Restless chords, circling, choking A violin played with shards of glass The third verse would be filled with screaming Raw and jagged Into the void where I hoped to disappear The fourth would fade into silence And the fifth would hollow to a ghost Then the devil's interval would loop, waiting for the next line

A Broken Song
If I wrote a song about me The intro would be a happy melody. I’d miss a couple chords Hum some notes a little too sharp But it’s okay The first verse would be laughter Dancing through the sun’s rays White keys beneath my fingers Playing the major The second verse would fog over minor notes bleeding through each wrong sound a confession I prayed no one would hear The chorus would unravel Restless chords, circling, choking A violin played with shards of glass The third verse would be filled with screaming Raw and jagged Into the void where I hoped to disappear The fourth would fade into silence And the fifth would hollow to a ghost Then the devil's interval would loop, waiting for the next line
With each passing day I feel less and less present (Down Day)
