Half a Person

Bear witness to the birth of broken promises. As the truth escapes, an honest man breaks. And i'm always getting worse at keeping words. Can't erase the things that my anger brings. Can't erase my striving relationship with loss. Agony i was taught. Moral standard has been maladjusted, and senseless acts reinforced. Anything to forget the pain. The agony i was taught. Becoming everything i never wanted to be somehow. Until i close my eyes and just fade out. Just fade out. My soul slips out. Out the back door, to the city streets. I can only hope for things to get better, but they never do. Growing further from myself without you. Bear witness to the death of love i never received when i was young. Just wanted to be by your side, but i guess i wasn't good enough. Can't say that i'm proud of the life that i've come to know. I feel the worst things in my soul. And if i never make it home tonight, the streets have swallowed me whole. Love to love to love to love you. But ah, fuck it. Love, i couldn't cut it
