I fidget with the weight of waiting And with a million plans I’d make them understand me - Seeking a surrender To complement the silence Moving our lips gets to be childish I’m terrified at beauty lurking in the open I’m not your walking-brain Leave me top shelf and covered If I must, I will I’ll brave the life, alone Exchange my brief goodbyes With modern technology Who’s going to chain me up through the telephone Someone selects And the choice Reflects solitude Someone reacts Though no one’s in the room Someone breaks down And sells her priceless artifacts Someone, someone Someone, someone Someone, someone I know thirty seven someone’s identical to you It’s easy to resemble the host You gave birth inside his house You help yourself to his sour food It’s indirect because we never say frankly: “When you’re heavily dissociated You fragment yourself in twos.” Cake batter, that’s our psyche I’m on the edge of feigning polite Her truth hangs heavy in the den I’ll suppose the right one hasn’t texted good night If I must, I will I’ll quit cold turkey every god-forsaken pill Stomp them in the ground Hop off the merry-going-round What’s going to brighten up my day Unmedicated in this day-and-age Someone selects And the choice Reflects solitude Someone reacts Though no one’s in the room Someone breaks down And sells her priceless artifacts Someone, someone Someone, (too lazy) Someone, Someone, (you’re obstinate) Someone; someone Fresh air A new hope To be dumb And track a horoscope What nonsense flies Just about every kind Don’t you let them dim your light Someone, someone Someone, someone Someone, someone Someone selects And the choice Reflects solitude Someone reacts Though no one’s in the room Someone breaks down And sells her priceless artifacts Someone, someone Someone, (too lazy) Someone, Someone, (you’re obstinate) Someone; someone Someone selects And the choice Reflects solitude Someone reacts Though no one’s in the room Someone breaks down And sells her priceless artifacts
