Dead


A woman laying on the bed in a difficult relationship.


For the show you can, 

Glide where you land,

With your head held high,

While I cry and die,

each time.


Your back is turned to me, 

Literally and figuratively.

Again and again,

You deal a game 

& no one wins.


I'm tired,

I'm so tired,

I am astounded at this.

My breath is taken,

Here it comes again.


You walk on half truths,

Only I see the way you move.

Your pride is so alive,

The more it lives the more I die.


You’re burning our home,

You’re burning my heart,

You’re burning our future, 

Wake up from the dark.
