Contribute to my angst
Allow me to suffocate on thought
I can barely hold myself together
And then I worry about you a lot
Trying to determine my place
It’s hard, I’m sure you know
I’ve been delivering a smile to the world
But I’m afraid it’s lost it’s glow
I’m catapulting further
Unsure of where that is
For a moment I had clarity
And now it seems I never did
Is there truly no purpose?
Are we connected and blind?
Even if we’re eternal
What the **** is with the mind?
Why do I have to do this?
Succumb to the workings of the past
These laws are dipped in currency
And I’m done replacing time for cash
I don’t really care too much for answers
Despite not knowing a thing
You can keep your God, and scientists
You can keep just about anything
All I want is you now
Do you understand?
What is? Is not important
And the self selfishly withstands
I won’t imagine why we’re here
I won’t keep striding
All I want is to see you
From behind the wall your hiding
