Icy car windows

Spoken for widows

Leaves are changing

Feeling not saying

What’s on my mind

Sign of the times

Snowing season

There is no reason

Why I’m this way

No one can say

This feeling of empty

Don’t you resent me?

Isolated contusions

Hope turns to delusion

Green turning grey

These feelings can’t stay

Salt under rubber

Words left as stutters

Go up for air

To find that nothing’s there

Losing my mind

Or is this just being fine

Routine or stagnation

Lost all hesitation

Life is no movie

Is it can’t or should not be

Hopeless feelings of sorrow

Just temporally borrowed

You’re acting so stupid

I am going to lose it

You’re losing your mind

I’m losing my mind

Why has all light

Turned to black,

Is this because of the maturity I lack

Why can’t I see

That the enemy in you is the truth in me

Falling for hope

Trying to cope

With endless monotony

Somebody stop me

Split into two

Which one is who

Cannot hold back

This mental attack

I am the light

The side without plight

Simple and tame

Yet keeping you sane

Choosing steps over leaps

Persevering past the heaps

Of shit being thrown

Just becoming further grown

To the other sides antics

Filled with fear and panic

Nothing but futile disdain

Can’t let go of the pain

But it’s being realistic

Because life’s so sadistic

Knowing I’m not one of a kind

Is something I don’t mind

THEY'LL NEVER

LEAVE YOU ALONE
