Emptied out on the balcony
A distant hum in the quiet street
I breathe in what I need to breathe
A flicker in the dark

A photo of what used to be
A ghost trapped in a body
I don't think I'm supposed to be
Showing up like this

You can have your way with me
Blood and guts and atrophy
Give me a lobotomy
To make me feel ok

Swear myself to secrecy
The silence is the death of me
And I could only let it be
Turning in the worst way

A rotten fruit a fallen tree
A curse for all eternity
I gave you every bit of me
I swore I could just
Float away

If I could have a time machine
I'd hold myself as a baby
I hope that she'd be proud of me
Hope I didn't let her down"
