I'm damp from soaking in my spite and
I don't have a jacket.
I'm dumb for eating up your crumbs and
filling up on famine.
Your hands
are death traps
Your eyes
are road maps
faking destinations.
Making preparations
to sever me off spitefully...
lacerate me, sight unseen
Our town is an eraser, now, and you've made me into fade marks
Stayed quiet on the margins til I marked your words and got smart
Smarting heart and scabbing memories...Already! Let me peel it off
Let me peel it off. Destroy me and then peel it off.
Street lights are laughing cruel again and
I can't even blame them.
Stupid, I drowned in the belief that
believing was an agent.
Your words
false star maps
Your laughter?
A death trap--
A blooded incantation
A prepared exhalation
So sever me off spitefully...
slash out my eyes so I can't see.
Claw me up, while I wait
tear every single atom
I have
in me
from me
Our town is an eraser, now, and you've made me into fade marks
Stayed quiet on the margins til I marked your words and got smart
Smarting heart and scabbing memories...Already! Let me peel it off
Let me peel it off. Destroy me and then peel it off.
