Every now and then I will sink into my skin Absorbed inside self importance Within destructive tendencies
Feeling the weight of the world And the burden of responsibility Hiding from fat shame Bitten off more than you can chew Tasted the apple that had fallen from the tree
How the mountain spirals Constellations like daisy chains Planting these orbiting recoils Fighting habits deeply embroidered Weaving the pattern of yesterday
Energy for a war with my bed Energy for the thoughts about death Energy for a void in my guts Energy to feel tired for love
Give me something You gave me a chance Now I’m back where I started At least how it feels
So I’ll get back up Because why not You have failed enough To know the steps
