Locked up
up and away
as the world rots
and rotates all
around me
I am waiting for
something to give
break and bend
or crack then crumble
we can't go on long
like we currently are
When is it ever
gunna be enough?
I can't even look
out the window without
seeing disappointment
the air has a funny taste
and I've been coughing
jus a lil too often for
mine or anyone's liking
Soon will come the gathering
roundups of the desolate
and desperate actions
lead deadly consequences
all the while I'm stuck in
smoking too much
not eating enough
and hating myself
for worrying so greatly
how someone is
when I know they
have not
spent a single thought
on me
spent a single thought
on me
