My lips skip on a precipice and they're slipping
Fault lines, warm skies, nothing to fill them
My limbs are fried from the false sense of immenseness
Heavy and hollow, I'm a walking contradiction
I haven't left my room in weeks
It's so cold without you here
Looking for constellations in the stucco
Wondering why it's me who's still here
Sometimes I forget that you're gone
The void teases my skin
I reach out into the nothingness
Sometimes it's a struggle not to fall in
I wonder if you're in there
My ears are ringing, might just be my phone
But in the end it's not so bad
These problems are all my own
These problems are all my own
Ask myself is this consistency
Or is it just repetition
Or am I surreptitious, relying on my conditions
Who f*cking knows, I'd be the last to admit it
There's closure in that
Not knowing the things you don't
Some day it won't hurt so bad
I'll be alright on my own
I think I'm better now than I'll ever be
But it's scary becoming what you thought you'd never be
It's unclear if it's past you who is changing
Or if it's present you who is stuck being complacent
Hindsight's 20/20, but foresight's 50/50
Avoid mirrors all you want, but someday you'll have to face it
This world is not so simple
Can't sit around waiting
See a chance, it's hard to reach out and take it
But I'll keep moving forward
It's probably what you'd want for me
Guess I'll never know that
You've drifted out to sea
I wish that you would come back
Maybe you're in a better place
But I won't ever know that
I am shipwrecked on your empty shore
I am rotting bones and splintered skin
A burden on your bloodied coast
A wretched message etched in the sand that reads
"Abandon ship!"
I'll let the sea pull me under
Feel the foam fill my hulls
Floating is easy now
We're all weightless under the surface
