A Lack of Clarity

You sit back, you shake your head
“Just don’t lie”
So I don’t, I keep my mouth shut
Do you see the way I can’t meet your eyes today?
Not that it makes a difference,
But surely you won’t push the point
I keep myself from my best
If the troubles on my shoulders could be worth their weight in gold,
I’d still die with my problems, a frail mind, but rich and old
It’s the ringing in my ears at night, it’s the tightness in my chest
The pressure in my head constricts this frail mind
You’re not there, don’t shake your head
“I won’t lie”,
So I don’t, I keep my mouth shut
And I swear I’m not coming back, goodbye
Just try to trust me, it’s easy
You’re all shaken up
You try to restrain me
I can’t open up to you, I try
Burn, this place will burn
So cover your eyes tonight
Not that it makes a difference
But surely you won’t push the point
I have to be anything, anywhere but here,
Far away from these blue walls and my distinct lack of clarity

Uninhibited;
You're a monologue, you're a suit without seams.
Talk yourself to bed;
The compliments flow back and forth, so easily
Morning takes her name;
Don't fret, it matters not, there'll be a hundred just like her.
Incompatible
I watch the play from my seat
And they say "try not to care,
You have a life to admire".
But I can't understand.
We don't talk, we don't fight, we don't have to stand up so tall.
(The chase is done)
A badly timed curtain call.
(When it matters most)
It's everything, to crave assurance you don't need.
(Inauthentic wit)
Hesitance can wash away, So easily.
(a small price to pay)
To watch your decency lost.
(Intermission)
It's not a time for recovery,
You're still a step above the rest.
The punters all see, the staff hold the scenery
This is a play, with the audience on stage.
And they say "try not to care" but I do.
It gets harder and harder
And they say "try not to care,
You have a life to admire".
But I can't understand.
We don't talk, we don't fight, we don't have to stand up so tall.
(The chase is done)
A badly timed curtain call.
Pick it up
Take it into you
Miserable pull and spit
It's contemptible
Visceral and vile
I find myself incompatible
with your collateral.

Counting down from 10,
This Goliath breathes in
He looks up and stares around,
'Join me and sow new ground'
No, more, deficient ideas,
And dirty, torrid, frantic mistakes
They shake their heads and say
'Be a realist sir'
Don't think, just talk
Just smile, then close the door and breathe
You trace the line to where it all began
But the ink doesn't flow
Still silence speaks volumes to you
Desperate to form your brave new world
All your work, swept to the waves and lost
Did you think that you'd make change?
[We won't change]
You're here to soak up the moral debt, straw man
[easily burned]
New low; they pick at you
Stripped bare; they'll come for you
New low; you stare at you
Time to go
