I swallow swords just to make you comfortable
I dust my bones and still you wish I'd throw you more
I find the time for you and all your many faults
I'll never reason with the head you call a home
I could never be a basic shade of pale
And I could never dim the lights to sit in hell
I'm only vague because it's never nice to kill
The souls of those who live a life just sitting still
That you tend to linger
You project the trauma
And gift it to others
Now is it true?
You're grooming a mother
Someone like you
Afraid to exit the covers
You only crave the shallow shadows you can part
You watch em dry on walls and still they paint your heart
A mirror of yourself so challenge never starts
They'll bite their tongue just for you to collect the darts
Another weekend down the bottle
You're hoping they don't see you've no soul
I'm counting rings and seeing time you'll never close
Pulling up the roots beneath the foundation you sold
That you tend to linger
You project the trauma
And gift it to others
Now is it true?
You're grooming a mother
Someone like you
Afraid to exit the covers
Another weekend down the bottle
You're hoping they don't see you're hollow
It's tug of war and you keep feeding me the rope
It's sick how much delight I feel watching you choke
A heart for a heart
I ain't thinkin bout you
done fighting in the dark
I ain't worried bout you…..
