Bard Feb 2020
Heart seen in fragments
Life is losing its fragrance

Blood spilt to a new year
Time brings new fears

Surrounded by so many
And I think its so funny

That people are taking advice from me
When I drown in vice, I cant even see

And all these little people all alone
Will die alone and I'm gonna die alone
Still when they ring my phone
I speak as if we aren't alone

Together for a time
Everything is fine

I'm a liar, a grifter,  and a thief
Giving people life and belief

My price is cheap just a bit of time
I rob the worry and make it mine
I'll be just fine I'll be just fine

But their not satisfied and neither am I
Depressed unable to let go its okay to cry
Give me your tears I'll let them dry
And then I'll say goodbye

So I can let my own tears fall alone
Cause my tears are all my own

I'll never share with them
My scars and my sin

Selfish, I keep it all to myself
Loneliness and aches are my wealth
All that I have ever had to myself
All I ever had is myself
feeling sorry for myself again,
surprise surprise, I think a lot
they say don't it's bad for you,
surprise surprise, I wonder still
feeling sorry for myself again,
like some crack-addled *****
frustration at every turn, as I see
the corridors of my mind; a dead end
every time, and maybe the migraines
are a true sign of recent times
pain for days, a complete sense of contempt
seeing myself so low, I must mount my eyes
high up in the trees, stitched into leaves
to look down on everything so

feeling sorry for myself again,
surprise surprise, I think a lot
they said don't it's bad for me,
surprise surprise, I wonder still
feeling sorry for myself again,
like some lonesome lowlife
I understand the kettle's whistle,
tormented and brought to boiling point,
tortured by the very talents that give it purpose
am I a kettle or a joke to you?
pain for days, a complete sense of contempt
seeing myself so low, I must mount my eyes
high up in the trees, stitched into leaves
to look down on everything so
Not much to say lately, I do miss myself though

— The End —
