Peeling

by wyteboy

Self mutilation at simmering dawn With no remorse for what tomorrow brings Now you lay there Gutted in the middle of your life Wondering how the fuck you got here With that shovel still in hand It's easy to blame those who watch So take your eyes from your sockets Catch a glimpse of the blood As it pours from your existence Maybe now you can learn to cherish This fragile slimey brain of yours And stop smearing it on pavement I hate you For you lack of compassion for me And unforgiving choices Please kindly let go of the steering wheel So I can verge away from the median Into this whimsical bubble bath called life
