Cut Off

spin me around
now I’m falling down
slip and drown in a pool of doubt
take what it is that you need while I’m face down
now you’re free
how do I level ground left too steep?
it keeps me down and under your feet
I graced you with my time just to see
you were looking out for you, never me
but you’re finally cut off
I should’ve known I did too much
I’m swallowed
I should’ve known I gave too much
now I’m low
it swallows me to think about you fondly

Fall/Fade

I’d reach out if I thought you would care
It’s not your fault, it’s my own cross to bear
I’ve been drinking it off for the last few years
any love now just feels insincere
just cross me off
I’ll fall into my fade
don’t dig me out from my grave
shovel dirt on my face
I missed everything you said
as I fall into my fade
I find it harder to breathe
found it hard to make peace with everything I am
the biggest part of me stays unwavering
though the words you speak still find their way up over me
alone, I’m standing face to face with my ghost
I could lie, but then you would know
don’t shine your light on me
I missed everything you said

Numb

close my eyes, retrace the lines that tie forever
I burn more pine, ignore the signs till I feel better
it turns my tide, I stay inside despite fair weather
heal in time, they say, but how can that be measured?
now I’m numb
why can’t I coincide with another?
make peace with my life and this knife I’m stuck under
try to save face, take my place as I mutter
Is this common place?
why can’t I just relate?
I don’t want to feel this again
forced down my throat, I found another way to cope
it’s moving slow, as it takes its shape and grows
and I’ll let this take me now
eyes crossed, my heads blacked out
I’ll let this take me now
I’m numb
