about

failure

lyrics

if i told you ‘you won’t suffer’
carved you a promise in stone
would you hold me in your arms still
if with your touch
it crumbled & broke?

see parts of you in my reflection
it’s unfair to you but i feel full
can’t help but ponder the ending
i’m not so sure i could return
the pieces i stole

i don’t want to become my grandma
swollen liver, jet-black lungs
drowning in unconscious self-hate
& lashing out at
everyone she loves

shake off all the layers i’ve grown
some shed but most stay behind
cast out my line for a miracle
all i catch eventually gets carried
back out with the tide
