i am just a man
and prone to giving up
faking worth for fortune
that never comes to pass
(or at last?)
how far can i be treading all these waters
this miseration - eternal bound slaughter
crying for me? i never see your tears
there's nothing that's free, in this desolate feed
(force fed dreams)
self-expression a vapid release
pathetic our eyes with their visage on these
meaningless words, images for you all
to lay out a heart in this everdying scrawl
(i'm sick of it)
too long i've made this fucking mess
writing out excuses to certify my breath
what use does it make to drown in what i lay
in hopeless messages, left to decay
if i could be a man
never lost in frustration
if there was a way to change the things i do
it would be different that i can promise you
still wondering if what is here is right
to lay out a soul taking all this in sight
forgiving? this isn't meant for me
a life filled with sorrow and no integrity
craftmanship, conveying what is there
cease all that's bleak, restrain the dark stares
