Some things are just for me
I can't have my own identity
I can speak for myself
Don't need anyone else
Crossing my boundaries
Clinging onto me
Let me have my moment
I don't need to share
Everything I have
And everything I am
What about what I need?
What about what I need?
What about what I need?
You're not a part of this
Obnoxious voice
Drown out the meaning
Spoiling the moment
Sinking feeling
Loudmouth quiet down
Loudmouth quiet down

Peace of Mind

The solution of breeding
You convince yourself to ignore what you're feeling
A semantic shift
You can tell yourself that they have no right to exist
Feel unsatiated
Use up a precious life
Absolved responsibility
Because you don't hold the knife
Try to find a reason
Something that you've missed
You tell yourself that you're okay
Because they were bred for this
Lacklustre conclusion
Inadequate solution
You still wash your hands
Like it's ritual ablution
Sophistry can be soothing
Unfounded peace of mind
Unexamined latent feeling
Peace of mind

Dandelion

Watch them spread
And watch them bloom
You pick and pull
They still consume
Not bothered by the
Constant endeavour
Because dandelions
They live forever
And now you're eating them by the roots
Dandelions
They live forever
Dandelions
They live forever
Your patience
Unbothered
It never seemed to falter
I am nothing like that
Persistent
And honoured
I lack the traits you offered
But that's for me to combat
Compare your smiling face
With my lack of grace
I never saw you frown
You couldn't be weighed down
Fields of yellow and green
Seem so overwhelming to me

Where Was I?
01:50
|
|||
|
Where was I
When you died?
Cement in your spine
I couldn't find the time
I couldn't find the time
Why am I ungrateful?
What makes me so mean?
I mean the world to you
But to me you don't mean anything
You don't mean anything
I can see my patterns clearly
I can see it all laid bare
I could fix this now
But I don't know how
So I'll live with this all over again
So I'll live with this all over again
So I'll live with this all over again
