Haunted Disappear
You and I can’t get much closer
In spite of what you want
I’m done explaining
I’m broke at best
Non-existent.
I lay me down to sleep
And disappear
Why is it you have a question
For every single thing I do
Why is it you say you love me
Nothing’s ever good enough for you
“What’s the matter now?”
“Have another one of these…”
“This will take the edge off…”
And I never knew what it would be
Decisions and decisions to be made
They’ll tell you what you said and what you did
To break from the futility and run
You speak through comparison
You speak in tongues
You listen suspiciously for gaps my adaptation
You have no magic touch
Please stop trying
Sucking me dry…
And I never seemed to get it right
It’s like a shadow hanging over me
You were the first
You were the last
If there’s a god
Release me from my past
I lay me down to sleep
And disappear
