every twig should have at least one leaf

under your tree is where i'll be
for a lifetime
without the shade
i''ll be crisp and unclean
unforgivable from the start
the smiles are what i will
hide beneath

the daemons in my walls
are why i can't sleep sometimes
the speeding of the hours
leave me unfocused and
needing to be reprocessed
i spit these fires out and
i'm left cutting the angels from a string
simon says i'm supposed to stay
the puddles from the rain
always remind me i'm not the same

i've split my soul in half
and i grew an inch
then shrunk a pinch
you invented a machine out of me
my blood given to you
was always red
fresh right off my bed
flies inside of me
charge at my lungs
buzzing my insides
they tried to feast off what i live by
it's why they died

my veins folded grotesquely
into a heap of squares
indecisive as to why they tore me
i leaked for weeks
outside a window i was seen
still it wasn't a plea
if there were something i could reach
i would wrap it around my feet
and send it for you to be pleased

everything about you bathes me
if i could i would show you how i'm taken
it's saddening to hear because i
thought it'd be impossible if i were there
but as i get lost in a clear heart
i go back and focus on the start
it all just pulls me and doesn't listen
after i fell i was severely bitten

there are keys and there are doors
i'm behind one with a broken knob
the only way is the old way
the passion hasn't gone yet
i feel the sun should shine in on me
underneath you'd see my feet shuffle
then through the hole
you'd watch me erase the trouble

in my thoughts
i pull the trigger
in my nightmares
i hear you're with her
right now in life
im the blurr
when everything's quiet
i'm the one who hears
during the storm
i'm the only one with fear
it's about damn time
i'm told
who's near

today i should just
eat my heart away
it doesn't love me anyways
i can't survive every single
cold and lonely day
i just don't want to
watch myself
melt away
away one day
die the day

everyone has left

every twig should have at least one leaf
