I Eat Words For A Living
In an instant
My words overflowed
From their mouth
Taken out of context
Without conscious consideration
Without control of emotion
Perspectives are locked in
And I am the root source
Of all of this tension
Simply because I was seeking release
Of tension - ironic
In an instant
The door was closed
And I, locked inside
I can't ignore this
I can't change it
So I am left with rehashes
And fake smiles.
I am fake smiles personified
In a hollow existence
With goal posts, always moving
I am in a head spin
Trying to figure out
Where the **** to aim
