Never focused
A new image
Never knowing that our life is scripted
Back out slowly
Swallow your tongue
Choke on everything you wish you'd done
Convinced that I am unconvincing
Because I had to
Because I know you too well
Not thinking through what I'm promising
What no one else could
Because no one else would
Reading my lips
Spoken slowly
Using an onslaught of metaphors and similies
Reconstructing
Bleeding slit wrists
I saw you recoil at the first sign of happiness
Tell me what you want from me
And I'll do all I can just to be
Everything for you
All of our feelings are fermented
Along with all that we've regretted
It's everything I do
Convinced that I am unconvincing
You know it
I can't blow it
I understand now what I'm promising
What no one else would
Because no one else could
