They stuff cotton down your mouth Because it’s the only thing that doesn't choke you When they try to muffle your sounds out But you scream with your eyes better than you Ever did with words
It’s a sharp sound that hurts to look at And you knew that contradictions were the best arguments you said “Arguments are the best way to show someone How much you love them because you are giving them your words And that is the best thing to give.” disagreement said “Or you could give em’ Some of your M&M;’s.”
They hung mosaics of your destruction on the walls and called it “Art” So you punched a hole through your bathroom mirror and called it “Creation” Spent the fourth day naming your shards “Zues” “Cordelia”. Saved the sharpest one And called it “Helen”, said “Pain only ever hurts when its beautiful.” Disagreement said “You’re a ****** up sadomasochistic *****”
On the fifth day you dreamt your father held you Except it wasn't your father it was a ******* who found you frozen to a street light On the sixth day you called me and said: “I have a name for creation; It’s destruction.” On the seventh day they found you praying to the images on a TV screen Holding onto a mathematical calculation in your hand Calling it the formula to happiness The numbers spelled out
