time has rolled under me | |
like asphalt under car tires | |
I am a thunder tree channeling lightning | |
like church spires | |
like roasting marshmallows on a campfire | |
I keep turning your words | |
around in my head | |
but I still feel so raw | |
how could you have said what you said? | |
why not just burn me up instead? | |
roll over me leave me for dead? | |
how could you have said what you said? | |
I feel nowhere near as special | |
as a snowflake | |
I invited you here just to wrestle you | |
for ego’s sake | |
drowning lakes are clear | |
until they’re opaque | |
with the sound | |
of your own drowning breath | |
I can still feel that veil of death fluttering | |
how could you have said | |
what you said….? | |
sometimes sticks and stones | |
would be kinder | |
than all this mental chatter | |
and words as we all know | |
are not supposed to really matter | |
it would be so much easier | |
to blame the flame for our pain, | |
to curse the wheel | |
but it’s so much worse to know | |
it’s simply how you feel | |
nothing comes to us we didn’t beckon | |
the only chance is now, | |
there is no second | |
in the end, we are just dust to dust, | |
flecks on history’s screen | |
we are nothing but loose memories | |
what else are we trying to be? | |
how could you have said | |
what you said….? |
time has rolled under me | |
like asphalt under car tires | |
I am a thunder tree channeling lightning | |
like church spires | |
like roasting marshmallows on a campfire | |
I keep turning your words | |
around in my head | |
but I still feel so raw | |
how could you have said what you said? | |
why not just burn me up instead? | |
roll over me leave me for dead? | |
how could you have said what you said? | |
I feel nowhere near as special | |
as a snowflake | |
I invited you here just to wrestle you | |
for ego' s sake | |
drowning lakes are clear | |
until they' re opaque | |
with the sound | |
of your own drowning breath | |
I can still feel that veil of death fluttering | |
how could you have said | |
what you said.? | |
sometimes sticks and stones | |
would be kinder | |
than all this mental chatter | |
and words as we all know | |
are not supposed to really matter | |
it would be so much easier | |
to blame the flame for our pain, | |
to curse the wheel | |
but it' s so much worse to know | |
it' s simply how you feel | |
nothing comes to us we didn' t beckon | |
