Skin crawling anxiety, jolt panic attack
Brain fire burning, no way back
Eyes upon me, shadows sneak by
More real to me now then your twisted lies
Exhaustion sets in like aftershocks
A quake of the nervous system, my body drops
Copper taste, of blood on bitten lips
Holding back truth, its hit or miss
Bloodshot eyes see everything
Especially your rolling eyes, lingering
Whispers caught in throat, disembark
Launching ships of sorrow when we part.
No leftover warm residue, not a scrap of missing you.
Cant sleep, cant feel, numb to sensations of this being real
Wishful thinking of such hopeful thoughts,
Catches me now just trying to stop
Tears flowing down a smiling face.
That slip this moment by with such awkward grace.
