Of all the words from tongue and pen the saddest of these is what might have been


My pieces are raining down

 

 You really shattered me

 

 My mirror is broken

 

 I’m all empty

 

 I allowed this monster to stay

 

 To hold me down again

 

 Get inside and ride me

 

 Thought that we were friends

 

 My eyes got wide and saw

 

 The pain that I had caused

 

 I ripped my vocal cords in half

 

 Expecting some applause

 

 I changed my act and kept clean

 

 Even sang a different tune

 

 But I came crashing down again

 

 Failure came too soon

 

 Shallow to my bones

 

 Royal growing pains

 

 I think I’ve had enough

 

 Slowly losing strains

 

 Too many downers uppers

 

 Bottoms of bottles in the air

 

 Of prescripts or liquors endlessly

 

 I really didn’t care

 

 I’m a mess I need to clean it up

 

 It’s killin me it’s what everybody sees

 

 It’s me this time who’s had enough

 

 I just wish it was with ease

 

 I want to save myself this time

 

 I just can’t do it without help

 

 But the only person I have come to blame

 

 Is really just myself
