Acute Care

Stuck inside a clean white hospital
Waiting for my mom to set me free
I wish that I weren't so fragile
So drugged up that I can barely see
It's digging further into your skin
For once, for me, please won't you give in?
Something blurry is smiling back at me
Screaming, crying, jumping, mumbling
Sounding thrilled but I still can't see
I can feel my lungs begin to breathe
You careless kid you're all I have left
Don't ever scare me like that again
No promise when you're gone that I will stick around
Cause you are only skin and meat and bones
One day you will leave me all alone

Something Vicious

I'm chewing on glass
Swallowing the shards
Grip my neck as they go down
Tear my throat apart
I'll never sing again
I'll outlive my friends
Yes, I will bury them if its the last thing I do
I'll sing with my bloodied tongue as the rest, it fills my lungs
On the day I leave you
Cause on that day I'll drown
But for now
I'll make this my home
This house with walls of bone
I'll find solace here
No kings, gods, crowns, or thrones cause here I am all alone
Free to disappear
I'm going back down
