I’ve waited here
Been here for the turn of the century
Awake to the world but not to the word
Or the meaning
There is a hint in every gentle gloss of your lips
Like mastication could somehow solve the problems inherent with eternity
What do I become, receiving nothing more than the harsh blows
Of adulterous bittersweetness?
But I’ve waited here
It is now time to take the initiative
And regain what all I thought I lost
Or maybe never even had
My brain is in a jar
A tiny manila name tag revealing my identity
And nothing more
Should you ever see me for anything more
All you need do is remove my lid
There is an order to the reigns of chaos
I slipped into the depths half a year ago
Drowned in my own ignorance
So I carry the shadow of my past in front of me
I simply need to walk in the other light
But will you notice the change?
I can see the woman who lives inside your head
It’s a journey to the very depths of what we see for reality
To just travel inside, and get away
I would just leave some courage at the side of your bed
Some kind of collateral, but first you must bid me entrance
Don’t think that what I may do is what will happen
To everyone who crosses the same path
You’ve walked that road before
There is nobody left in that line
Because you’ve betrayed all of their guidances
They shamelessly abused your name
I simply wish to restore its honor
Saving myself from myself
I know what it is that I am after
There is no need to fear the outcome because
Simply put, the outcome is you.
