I am a liar
A taker, a thief
I don't love
I don't change
Reduce my life
To black and white
A current pulls me down
Why should I struggle
What can I do to make you take this from me?
Alone in a room
Stained with bad memories
And wasted hours spent
Scribbling things on a page
Thoughts trickle back
to the things I resent
About myself
About the things that I lack
What can I do to make you take this from
Things haven't really gotten worse
But I have and I know it

Let's take turns to see how bad it can get
Self fulfilling prophecies show me just how empty I am
A repeating diatribe, a story of failure
I don't try to better myself, I devour my anger
My guts rot, all I do is drag my corpse
Regurgitating words that mean nothing to you
Floating on forms I don't question anymore
Please don't be honest with me
Feathering a nest, but choking on dirt
I can't grieve
Let's take turns to see how bad it can get
Let your friends deal with all of you shit
I was once able to close my eyes
And imagine what my future might hold
Now I can't even bring myself
To imagine anything at all
Everything's fallow, everything's blank
Each promise I make proves false in the end
Vomit up lies, choke on regret
Abandon your friends
Here lies the boy who wept for no one and whom no one will weep for
Here is the hole where I buried the questions that I wanted to ask
Here are the people that I hinder, that understand I'm something awful
Here is everything that I used to hold onto in hope that it might bloom
Less than nothing, choking on dirt, less than nothing, less than nothing
