Who You Ask
Depends on who you ask if I'm a bridge or the wind
Tend to break my own heart against those I let in
Please excuse the mess, glass shards that dig in
Regrets that replay, like yesterday was right now
If you make me a temple, fear is my paint
Why build a house that I'll rage and burn down?
Why trust a sinner then deny a saint?
Cause the further I venture, I won't go away
Need the company of kin to the crazy insane
Chatter away the voices that infect my brain
Charter a plane or I'll jump on a train
Either way on the move for the truth in my lane
Shark in my veins, wake and bake the teeth from my bite
Maintain and stay high, seem like an addict, I'm numbing my mind
Else my demons will creep till my teeth gnash and I weep
You won't hear a peep, stuff it down deep till it has its own gravity
Pulling at the edges of my sanity
Laughing like gallows humour will really save me
She left me for dead; heart on my sleeve
Too long in the sun and now rotting meat
But I won't miss a beat, stay on my feet
Rather die on my own two than live on my knees
Tomorrow will come or I'll get lost in between
Stuck to the pages, I'm thick drying ink
Question is who pens my story? Is it possibly me?
Soon as I get the courage doubt cuts me in three
This is my plea, there is no saving me
Running out of options is transforming me
Twist up my neurons and kill dopamine
That's why I smoke weed, THC in me till I rest in peace
Is that my legacy? Medicate the day away or go insane?
To be honest it's too late for my crazy to be contained
Fighting three dragons to just start out my day
Rather stay between cartoon sheets than face hurricanes
Or a blaze from my rage that I can never explain
Depends on who you ask if I'm broken or OK
Tend to pull at my loose threads till I'm drifting away
Excuse the mess I make and burning bridges in my wake
Too much take to my give, push and pulled to my grave
Depends on who you ask if I'm a bridge or the wind
Tend to break my own heart against those I let in
Please excuse the mess, glass shards that dig in
Frayed around the edges and a little broken in
Wish I could be your hero but I'm barely hanging in
