To move through genealogies consider what it takes The blood of those before you filled with all of their mistakes And what you've given into will uncover how you came A sort of inquisition to eradicate your name I called myself "the others" if I staggered or destroyed Made everything inside of me so purposely devoid If not by my own doing then by those whom I had known To whom I was connected, thought, believed I could call home Today's a separation I have never known before Or one that I'd forgotten since I leveled with the floor There's nothing on the bottom but I cannot seem to look Much further than the dirt of earth, the silver that I took The people are in pieces and my head tries to compare So often I can only find the source of our despair I go to bed in cycles I can barely seem to keep Awake so long I wait for dreams to make me fall asleep If anyone can see me or engage my busy head I'll breathe before I speak again, let life be what is said
what is won, what is lost - what will stay, what is tossed
