Chewing On Glass…

Holding onto guilty feelings
How I’ve always been
Selfish by a need I can’t explain
My time means more than I’d admit
Better than you… I think not
Words I say and my actions don’t match
What would you like me to say?
That seeing isn’t believing
More lies to die upon these days
Crosses lining the sky line upon the hill
We’ve all got a burden to blame
My selfishness a need I can’t explain
Rather be alone than celebrate another night
Thinking about everyone I let slip away
Holding onto guilty feelings I could have changed

I want to finish this… but there’s no end…

It’s been a while
Since I have told a story
To anyone else other than myself
Tales of fiction to close my eyes to
Empty islands to destroy with my needs
Lost at sea with nothing to worry about
Fallacies I tell myself to fall asleep
It’s not like it could mean anything
About the state of my mind
That I’d rather be alone than drowning with you
The icebergs are melting and it’s meant to be sad
Earth is being swallowed whole, but is that bad?
We’ve burnt enough of this place
To prove our empathy is only a fake
Fuck the turtles or the little chipmunks… right?
Half of that scenario is going to be just fine
As we all die out and act like we care
It’s been awhile since I thought about it
Not much if anything has changed and the seems right

It feels as though everything is falling apart…

That’s the thing about truth… reality
It is ruled on by committee… unfortunately
What is… is based on what we believe
It is easy to see how people get tricked… get hurt
Pluto is a planet… that is now a dwarf
If we wanted the sun could change tomorrow
For better or for worse
Perception is reality but reality’s not always perceived
Because that’s the thing about truth… reality
It is what we say it is for the time being
And each one of us is afraid of change
Afraid to be wrong… thought of as insane
What’s okay today won’t be ok tomorrow
And that in itself is alright for most things
