Annuals

This is neglegence
An overlay
Each thread, each vein

Broken watch worn on my weaker side
Haunted rooms where I’ll spend my time
This backbone’s so paper thin
Smaller hands held my head back when

We’ve been pulling at every thread
Cave in, carve out some space in time
Closing tight are your sore eyelids
Vacant, I’m watching my wasted breath

Watch it float downward, slower

Stuck in the ground below
Your consequence
Time still has nothing to show
From our plans so get lost, kid
Take all the pieces and go
Unfinished problems
Time still has nothing to show

Look down to save your savior
A favor towards this brighter light
Common man
Close both my eyes
