[bodytext] => I’m crawling under the weight of this gravity I feel it pulling inside me its claws are tearing me up from the inside out I know you’re fine, but what about everything I want and everything you flaunt while you act so **** nonchalant and everything I need steeped in fears I can’t feed dig my nails in so deep ‘til I bleed if I dress it up in pretty ribbons to see would you keep on believing me? or would you look hard enough to figure it out? I say I’m fine, but what about everything I’ve shed and stagnant flowerbeds nothing grows on deserted deathbeds and tell me how you’d feel if your Achilles heel bled out faster than it could congeal all I want is for this place to be my own why won’t you just leave me alone? I keep waiting for you to quit dragging this out nothing changes, but what about knowing when to go and which towels to throw fighting the pull of the undertow and falling so far down from pedestals and crowns to churning stormclouds and dreary showdowns now all I hear are screams of everything I’ve lost constant reminders of the cost ‘cause you’re shoving it you’re **** shoving it in my face and it’s too hard to quit even harder to admit so take your ghosts and go you’re haunting me you’re **** haunting me and what about what I want?
