He’s bleeding

In bed

A boy lies melting reverently

Giving his whole self eventually

To what’ll drown him in the end

He’s the waves that crash and break him down

He’s the wind that tosses them around

He’s the voices in his head

What’s wrong

Is it lonely out there all alone

As you float atop a blue unknown

Better join it while you can

You can’t give up now you got so close

Part of me can’t help but hope

You follow through with what you said

Got a book of rules you’ll never break

Butthe sky’s never felt more opaque

Want you to show me how you bend

Now the pressure’s more than he can stand

And at 3am he takes his chance

Sneaks his phone down to his bed

He convinced himself he heard a knock

His door stays closed but doesn’t lock

And every sound scares him to death

In the dark a boy becomes a man

In a world he’ll come to understand

Passes animals for men

Now she’s telling me it’s been a month

And she misses how we used to touch

I could hardly even tell

And there’s something in the air tonight

But the tension’s only on one side

I feel satisfied as hell

As my love’s eaten away by lust

And my lover’s left there in the dust

Think I’m losing her as well

In the dark a boy is playing man

I’m beginning now tounderstand

I’m no man I’m something else
