I swim in my sea of doubt
caught in riptides I shout
ocean swallows me silent
nobody knows I was bent.
Our world grew quiet like the dead.
   I never heard silence like this before.
   I knew it was over when we ate alone
   and slept apart and watched our own
   shows. We always adapt. We're good at it.
   It's easier than fixing what is broken.
'Til death we vowed
heads fervent bowed
We'd been drunk wild
belly full of child
18 and 19 naive
tonight we believe.
I've had enough living.
All taking and giving
the promises broken
forgiven never spoken.
Tally wacker won't work.
There's no more circle ****.
Our tears are all the same.
Stay warm in dead flame.
drunk and ****
***** and egg
I was a tiny god
in my tiny womb
swoosh the sound
one night stand
name me Hank
Shea walk plank
75 and I fell again.
Hurt worse when sober
in the morning sun
in my cold October.
Hold my broken heart
bring it back to life.
Love's perfect storm
has a sharper knife.
