I can only hold my breath so long, Before the sirens echo around me Yet asphyxiation seems so wrong How can you love what you refuse to see, Oh well, hold on to whatever will get you through, what ever makes you belong Who do you love? I can see through, to ya love, Who do you love? Do you love me? OR just the thought of me? I think the latter is the matter, The problem in your skin, Take your head, and make it spin. Roll it off your neck Blow the Job you do so ‘well’ I mean what the heck **** your toes, burn in hell Because from the bottom of your soul you’re a soiled mess A cluster **** of paranoia and stress Using and digging like a poor and dying ***** Seeing shadows play lamp light out across your floor. Letting go takes a step forward, On beaches of brighter days, sun burning your flesh In its indifferent rays. What puts a folded heart inside a lovers hands? The anti-gravity that tells you to stay the hell away from me. Depravity in your shallow soul-called-cavity makes this man Truly understand. Letting go takes time, a focus unlike anything. Letting go takes love, that burns the candle of hate TO emaciate, the marrow that creates blood for your mind so narrow. Stung and dumb, and young and fake You have no more love to take— Not from me or the love locked in that position, You and I are atomic fission Listen, You are my friend—you’re misunderstood But your heart is infected with pain and to heal it should Give up on the strings dripping poison into it’s chambers Keep testing me, Keep ingesting me, Keep molesting me, Just protect your situation Waste that carnation Take your mental vacation, But as you push aside the things you don’t want I’ll be out to war, the vanguard Avant. I can stop a train, clocking 80miles-per-hour But your hairs not long enough to save you from your tower. That rises as I fall, I can’t take the speed it’s moving at, Though honestly, for you, I’d never stop the train. Because you need to grow into a real life, Away from the fantasy of your ignorant head So you can be a stay at home wife So you can **** in bed, And be divorced for trying so hard, Even when your hubby went limp And once you’re truly jarred You’ll realize that you are just a shrimp Headless into cock-tail, Your chitin shell so frail

Letting Go
I can only hold my breath so long, Before the sirens echo around me Yet asphyxiation seems so wrong How can you love what you refuse to see, Oh well, hold on to whatever will get you through, what ever makes you belong Who do you love? I can see through, to ya love, Who do you love? Do you love me? OR just the thought of me? I think the latter is the matter, The problem in your skin, Take your head, and make it spin. Roll it off your neck Blow the Job you do so ‘well’ I mean what the heck **** your toes, burn in hell Because from the bottom of your soul you’re a soiled mess A cluster **** of paranoia and stress Using and digging like a poor and dying ***** Seeing shadows play lamp light out across your floor. Letting go takes a step forward, On beaches of brighter days, sun burning your flesh In its indifferent rays. What puts a folded heart inside a lovers hands?
