I am kind of this perpetually tired Sack of flour I’ve been staring at the walls for hours All I am full of is nothing And it sounds pretty dramatic But when i’m fulfilled, there’s no room for sadness There’s no madness I feel fine (if fine is the absence of anything) I feel tired All the time I’m never sure what to make of times like these Am I crashing from the caffeine? This lack of feeling turns me into darkness I couldn’t face another human being right now I’d be exhausted Apathy is the thing i’m avoiding everyday and every night Since I learned how to write Apathy is a man’s plight Apathy is where they go at night When you leave me here I can’t articulate What I want you to hear Just know on some days I would **** to care I’d love to feel I want us all to be there A red hot drum beat A bleeding snare I’ll touch you where you’ll feel it Here are our tears -- which one of us means it? I hadn’t cried in months but You still haven’t opened me up as much As I desperately want I’m signing off My resignation might make you soft Apathy is ruling me Yours and mine just intertwined Apathy won’t let me Wrap my hands around your spine Or see my reflection in your eyes.
