Sewing Together The Limbs

The colors of hate are black and gray
Caught between sleeping and staying awake
Force myself out of this black hole
Only to come up short

If pity is as petty does
I’ll live in fear of love & trust
Feels like the last day of the rest

I reside
And this bludgeoning is real
I reside (in a blank slate state of mind)
I reside (in a blank slate state of mind)
It’s the only way to feel

Alone in a dark room
To scared to open my eyes (sewing together the limbs)
Crying out can anyone hear me screaming
On my knees want you to say
It’s no fault of your own

An ocean of urgency overwhelms
Burdens lay waste as the ground starts to swell
Where’s God when you need her
Hiding in the dark when you need her

If pity is as petty does
I’ll live in fear of love and trust
Feels like the last day of the rest of my life

This is a mistake
I never meant to make
Hold me underwater now
Drown me slowly

It speaks to me in riddles
But I’m just fine
Don’t speak to me
Take the air that I breathe
Cause I’m just fine
Deflowering the orchid
But I’m just fine
Don’t speak to me
Take the air that I breathe
