you’ve been working on me
ever since I can remember...

I've been thriving,
So it's been years...

Embrace me from behind
Never let me go...

Doesn’t seem to take much
A word, a joke, a sound...

The calmness here is eerie,
the silence that cuts like a knife...

No one can be bothered
to even remember your name...

Smile sweetly all you want
I know it full of venom...

Wandering through life
with no purpose or direction...

I climb up onto the bed
as I lay down for the night...

I did something I thought,
could never be done...

Just like the ocean,
so calm and serene...

A flattering smile,
a laugh like the sun...
