Sit and wait
Patiently
Alone underneath
The staircase
Of our new home
Miscellaneously
Unaware of
The burns on my hands
Like a furnaces' heat
You've been stripped of your sovereignty
And left to tend to your own seeds off the back of your own
In turn, the earth will spin
And, in turn, the plants will grow back in
Your hands will be monuments that measure where the pain has been
They were encapsulating and calculated

I walked right behind you
To resuscitate
With a couple more mistakes we've made
Off the heels of your silence
With healing meant for change
I walked right behind you

And you'd think its what you wanted
To just be alone
You can't convince me it autonomous
I know you better than anyone
You like to think that you're forgotten
In your heart
But, it's not the same, and it was never the same
As anyone may have thought
So now you'll breathe in your bedroom
Listening to the same Slow Rosary songs
Or watching K-On! all night long
Until you think you can manage
When you feel discontemporary

I get intimidated by you
Though you aren't meant to depreciate me
I locked my door behind me
With no intent of displacement
Sometimes you forget how miserable you are
I can't help feeling bashful
I'm not terribly important
Though I do wish I meant something
I left it all behind me
There's no need to replace me
I'm not a martyr to speak of at all
Mistake, misplace
I can't help feeling bashful
Mistake, misplace
Account for the pain again
And you'll see a faint image of what is left
Mistake an integral and vital part of me
Misplace an integral and vital part of me
And I will stay in wait until there is nothing left for me to miss

I wasn't so honest on my script
In hopes you'd understand why I went away
I thought I dodged city lines
From the highway on my way back out from here
We just moved away
Across to where we thought we had meant to be
We just moved along
We just left alone
We felt sick knowing we were wrong
We saw the moments in the mirror as they had gone
Sat beneath the stairs as we faded along
And it wasn't worth it at all
But, they went anyway
And our eyes burned, wet and warm
It felt visceral

Christmas lights
They are binding
Around our necks
So, cut beneath me
Well, were we meant to be
Where we thought we were always?
Well, were we meant to be?
Coated in chrysanthemum petals
In the ease of our process alone
It was just never my place
To decide where to go
I will be seen
As the mistake you have established me
I want to believe
But I won't
Incessants
If may, or mighty
An end, regret
So please forgive me
Well, were we meant to be
A component that's needed?
Well were we meant to be?
Cushioned by sunflower blossoms
In the ease of our process alone
It was just never my place
To go off alone
It will be serene
When I finally learn to let myself go
I want to believe

A set facade display to stay
Made of empty promises and mistakes
Yet, I may miss you
I hope you will too

You can hate me for what I say
Based upon the condescending tone
Of what I've said
It's exactly what I've meant
I'll feign my solidarity
To you
When we peered off the side of the rooftop
We knew exactly where we had went wrong
You can wait for me to defend you
You can wait for me to amend truths
But I know that's what you want from me
Because they'll leave me behind there anyway
And they'll step on the promises that we made
And they'll change their minds so irreverently
I'll never fucking understand
