my inner core frozen beyond measure
I've been numbing more than usual
reality slapping my face a bit harder than I'm used to
Grip on the situation slipping away
grain by agonizing grain through my mind
I'm afraid of losing what little understanding I've got
while at the same time, wishing I could escape for just a little bit
Haunted by a dark, dreamless sleep
waking up to exhausted panic
I'll pour myself into something and I'll put on a front
shoving all anxiety into a gorgeous box
Am I paranoid or just stoned
I'll take a walk and focus thought
It's nice to be alone and yet I'm so fucking lonely
Connection to the consciousness becoming an ancient myth
Who was I even a year ago
Cross of changes is a burden shared by everyone but we also walk in single file
None of us can really comprehend
My shoes they are too tight
and we all have forgotten how to dance
