You fell for the first option presented of new rebirth You couldnt see it but you thought youd believe it Since your soles cramping up have been swollen and sore Your new shoes back then just dont fit anymore You retraced the same shape, cut up and resewn When you felt abandoned, when you felt alone When you felt alone And on New Years, you resolved to make your chaos external Duress of sickening kinds, a half year blackedout of my mind No string traced back to a placemarker alleviate Erase failed attempts at obstructing machines Got drained when the crutch became vampiracy Bit off more than could chew and then swallowed it whole I choked on your temper when you felt alone When you felt alone And the sirens cry loudly I am reflexive, I cry loudly You put my picture in framing Hung forever, left me strangling Called me baby And with your nature reversed and our home as our cage You caved and you asked is this coming of age? As you climbed out the window, your face cold as stone You lifted the towel, your wrist showed the bone I held my breath in the ER, I swayed as I stood I tried to stay steady to protect you the best that I could You pretended to sleep the entire ride home But I heard you crying when you felt alone When you felt alone When you felt alone When you felt alone
felt, alone, loudly, placemarker, resewn
