I’d like to try that **** where I don’t rhyme I say to the willow tree as I sit beside her I like men who are creative This is me trying to be THAT guy Honestly, though, I don’t think it’s working I’m stuck inside most days It used to be self-inflicted But it’s paid, now… is that the same? Like a grandfather clock I’m passing back and forth on this ever Wavering face of feelings marked as numbers Like ******* clockwork, I can almost time my feelings There’s the norm for you. Have I scared you away yet? Hell, I don’t think you’d ever say honestly. I could always be wrong though… But will you look at me the same? I can’t seem to be a man in either respect. I don’t **** ******* and punch ***** But I don’t give up myself and hang on sticks. I don’t know where I am And that last stanza left a ******** taste Than the aftertaste of lemon shanty. Yeah, that ******
