I battle in the gutters
of self righteous nausea.
Sinking as I swallow
What you left for me.

My anger turns to self loathing
and I turn on myself.
You let me get so far away
As you sit there and watch the days
Go churning before your eyes.

I can’t help but to wonder
That maybe you just never cared as much for me.
And, maybe you said what I wanted you to say.
I was lonely when you found me anyway.
So, I get lost in what I want to be.

Rolling down the same highway for coffee
It’s nearly 2am and I’ve realized,
You left your mark on everything.
I died away a few miles back.
So, just keep on keeping on
In that shiny silver 5 speed.

My echoes will fall silent
On the whitewalls of your imagery
And my heart will break quietly
In your absence.
Let the new dawn rise this morning
As my soul dies within
The shallows of your apathy.
