Peeling myself off the floor with shaking legs, My head's spins and my bones feel lead heavy, I grin through ****** teeth as the question begs, what happens to the river when you break the levee. ****** knuckles, bent noses, and black eyes. Dissociation hides behind a smirk and a dimple, that practiced mask that self loathing buys, I say I'm getting better, like its ever that simple. You see I'm an expert at burning bridges, a true to life true crime social arsonist, I bathe in jet fuel to clean my stitches, Just another on fire narcissist. So leave my mirror be, cause its a cracked reflection, the bad guy won my mental election, Please don't trust his smiling inflection, and save yourself from my infection.

Peeling myself off the floor with shaking legs, My head's spins and my bones feel lead heavy, I grin through ****** teeth as the question begs, what happens to the river when you break the levee. ****** knuckles, bent noses, and black eyes. Dissociation hides behind a smirk and a dimple, that practiced mask that self loathing buys, I say I'm getting better, like its ever that simple. You see I'm an expert at burning bridges, a true to life true crime social arsonist, I bathe in jet fuel to clean my stitches, Just another on fire narcissist. So leave my mirror be, cause its a cracked reflection, the bad guy won my mental election, Please don't trust his smiling inflection, and save yourself from my infection.
