Waves

My worn, tired eyes cause me to subside

My essence wearing thin

We're slipping further from the end

Is it ever worth it?

Under this crushing weight?

These tethers binding my fate

Are ones that I have made

Suspended in a dream - the only way to breathe

All this time, I feel so rejected

Just flip the magnets in this compass I hold

All these hands in so many directions

There's not enough of me left to unfold

Repelled from you, missing protons again

What I said on rotation in my head

The explosions, always so immense

Counteracting the preeminent need for rest

And I'm revoked of

What used to help me sleep

God forbid I ever realise my dreams

All this time, I feel so rejected

Just flip the magnets in this compass I hold

And all these hands in so many directions

There's not enough of me left to unfold

Can I fall without losing it all?

How did I think I was capable?

Feel the waves

Float away

All this time, I have rejected

All the light bulbs bursting over my head

And these new plans are all getting shifted

Now my body's giving up once again

Giving up once again
