I have been living every second of everyday Desperate Each waking hour and each hour I lie asleep Desperate Stumbling streets at all hours of the morning Going to sleep in a doorstep as the sun rose So many short winter days sleeping through the sun Quite voices saying I am now unsavory Realizing myself that they now tell the truth Lieing like a rug when everyone wipes their feet Acted the art of my soul to a sit-com crowd Fell down on stage crying just after the first act Gave up trying to be nice and to be civil Tasted the wine of defeat every day for months And bitter tastes remain in my mouth to this day Sweet memories left to rot out in the heat Prayed to Jesus, Buddah, nature and still nothing waiting for rides that never came, phones that never rang Growing up fast then kind of leveling out Running away from home to the cold city streets Ignoring, never calling, never stopping by Reading the words on my soul and wanting to cry I can write you poetry that'll make a strong man lose his mind: |
