Tied up to the hands of time/
I was suffering through the minutes/
And you were pausing for hours/
Counting down the suns until we collide/
Left in the wake a heart to break/
No need for control this path is best enjoyed unknown/
No victor to be had/
Just whispers of sand/
No love lost/
No love found//

Methodically smoking my cigarette/
Every breath I breathe out the day/
With every delicious sip/
I drink away the night/
Stroking my hair to/
The beat of his heart/
Watching a boy turn into a man//
I came from the heart of a broken man/
I came from rusted interiors you could not stand to live in/
Screaming always just down the hallway corridor/
Became solaced songs that to this day I cannot help but sing along/
Product of my environment my words forever bent/
How I managed to setup shop in your life I have yet to discover/
But I continue to make torrential weather as I sever everything you once felt connected to/
I hope you run for cover/
Anyone would’ve expired me long ago/
And I’m just an incessant pest who infests any happiness that manifests/
This isn’t sorrow/
This isn’t angst/
Just another taste of what is to come/
I am everything you hate to love/
I am your son//

It took awhile to let you in/
Now I’ll do everything it takes/
To scrape your memory from my skin//
Drained my apathy across your breasts/
I’m a stray raggedy cat come to be fed/
You always find a way to keep me coming back/
But this genetic disease has me on my knees/
Rubbed my blood across your hairy chest/
I’m no stranger to the everlasting pain/
You always found a way to keep me waiting/
But today I can finally breathe//

I found your position on the continent/
You were frozen in the arctic circle/
You just can’t tell your real feelings/
From the ones that have been cast far from these shores/
As if once they were exposed the ice would melt/
You were drowning in the blue ocean/
But managed to find time to weave a tale/
In between breaths of love and trust/
Of lust and lies/
Now I see through you without even trying/
I turned my back on your disguise/
Quicken my body with a false sense of security/
It’s just another reminder of my past/
How do you feel now that I’ve stopped loving you?/
Back then I romanticized your intentions/
So many inventions of your mind that continue to fill up the shelf/
I would just fill in the blanks of your silence/
Project onto self the love that was never felt/
And watch you like a life line/
Sparked a rift, a division of bodies/
I fought so hard to stop the hole from bleeding/
But the liquid memories fell through my hands/
This battlefield of a continent was just the world we created/
You cast the first stone into the water/
And witnessed me breaking/
Without fixture, without mend/
Is this really the end?//
