Severance

Reaching to find the words I'd say that you would leave alone

I'm sure you're not invested

I'll float on my ambition

Safe inside this severed state

But you play on intuition's grace

Years have passed us

But I still allow myself to take it there

Return the piece of me you have

To fester when the game gets unfair

I'm losing, struggle moving on

Can I see it clearly now

That all I really want is down and out

But is it for the better?

Cause I don't think I can live like this

No, I can't live like this forever

So tell me honest cause I think I'm losing patience

With this game we're playing

Designed for breaking us apart

Part of me still thinks I'll hear you sweetly

But this time I'm thinking

That I'm just learning that it hurts to

Allow myself to take it there

You keep the piece of me you had

To fester when the game gets unfair

I'm losing struggle all along

Numbed myself to what was wrong

Learning to separate myself

(From the upper hand)

Separate you from

(Everything I am)

Sear this truth behind my eyes

That all I know has died

It's gone but not forgotten
