Your midnight lullabies consist of painful howls
Wounds cannot be opened to let the bloody pain through
It must all vibrate the air in bowls
Why can't I show my pain to you?
My skin is erupting like the Ebola
From all this patience I have for you
Your narrow projection does not let me in
All I can do is wait here for you
Your apologies and your promises
Trickle down your body as you walk on with life
You leave me behind
Forgetting who I am
Forgetting what you've told me
Conserving the past that you know pierces me
What does it matter?
If these tears don't involve you?
These stabs of emotion
It's my problem
Something that you think wasn't caused by you
All I can do is have patience for the better
And hope
That my heart doesn't explode before I breathe in
