Not by tempest but sea-sickness Of Ailments of the mind ailments of minor consequences with the exception should you stay frozen in time which still passes this too shall
I tend to follow strings That lead no where Sometimes even They dangle off dark trenches And I'm such a fool I follow them to my doom
I lock all my doors With bolts and keys You're always pounding on the doors And I always let you in If your knuckles are already bruised Might as well knock some sense into me
I light fires That I don't know how put out [ ] Sometimes I find hoses And I'm filled with hope Unfortunately I don't know how those work either
I keep crashing cars On the sides of mountains The radio sings like molasses Not a soul around And yet I still always manage To blame the traffic in the city
I forget the time And the dates on the calender When the sun sets on my face All I truly know Is another day is done And another day is wasted
The words I speak Are far too similar to yours I feel the dirt on my tongue A bitter taste that I ignore So to counteract this fear Of your vocab matching mine I started brushing harder To loosen up the grime I want that Colgate white That fresh uncaring scent I need you out of my molars Scraped clean of your cement I stand over the sink For hours at a time Just tearing at my gums To sever that line Now I'm shouting in the mirror Why can't you leave me be There's blood in my spit You're rooted like my teeth I'm stuck in this house So I'm swishing my mouth And spitting you out With you I'll live without When I'm no longer stuck in this house And you in my mouth
I don't like the way my brain rattles I don't see any benefit And i really do despise That you're the one shaking it I have life to be lived Yet im stuck in this exile Of your on and offs And staring at your profile I laugh at our potential And cry when I remember You're hotter than July And colder than December I thought you were a bee Turns out you are a wasp Or maybe you're a red light And ive forgotten how to stop That tag on my shirt Digs into my neck Crawls up to my brain And leaves me in a wreck So you find it funny How much I think of you Your comedy needs some work Maybe try something new I'm really getting bothered Just leave me I beg Stop telling me lies And get out of my head
