Sometimes I wonder what I have to do
To make this more obvious.
How do you want this message sent?
Apparently screaming and crying
Don’t demonstrate a thing.
Do I keep it all inside?
Tired of the pretend pity,
The faux concern.
Windows open &shut all the time
And no one notices the death
Of the air currents.
Let me in, so I can choose the friends
I fall prey to.
I’m sick of screaming&crying because obviously
they don’t demonstrate a damn thing.
Where in the world did you bury your soul?
Black orbs fill your empty skull.
The hole in your chest used to
House an organ capable of pity
And love
But now you just drip venom
From that gaping wound.
Never again, is what you told me.
Never again
the promise you sold me.
Investments I lost.
This isn’t the fucking stock exchange.
Our lies keep us company
When we’ve squandered
All our emotions.
