shut down. dismissed.
how'd it ever come to this?
how'd we ever get to this.
i know you're not. i know you don't. i know you can't. i know you won't. you won't.
can't say what you need to say.
can't see this rift you made.
can't face what needs to change.
these doubts. this hesitance.
nothing here that can't be fixed.
nothing here that would be missed.
can't say what i need to say.
can't meet me halfway.
can't take this fear away.
both blind. both deaf.
this reticence all that's left.
this reticence all that's left.
how could this be all that's left?
another breath to take.
another boundary set.
another heart to ache.
another gaze not met.
another promise broken.
another fence to climb.
another hope unspoken.
another waste of time.
another guard to post.
another hatchet buried.
another hidden cost.
another shield to carry
another shield i carry.
another. another........
we're not, but we're supposed to be better than this.

i know i've said it. i guess i'll say it again:
"we really still have to ask about it?"
these bones i pick....
so tired of needing what everyone should have.
so ready to let my piece be said.
tired of demanding. tired of clawing my way
through words i shouldn't need to say.
it's not enough to half-listen and go
"you're right but what's to be done about it?"
don't call me bitter. don't say you're better than that.
i really don't want to laugh about it.
these bones i pick. these bones i pick aren't mine alone to break. and scream. and laugh. and cry. and need. and bleed. and wonder why. we still. must greet. with open arms. these men. who think. they'll win. with charm.
saying, saying..... i'm tired of saying it.
tell me - are you listening?
saying i can't really means that you won't.
saying i want really means that you don't.
done with asking for the obvious.
done with obvious being oblivious.
done with oblivious
done with these idiots
done with it
done
