My Throat Is An Empty Grave

We lay face in pale solitude. To save face, we pulled our walls in front of you. To the same place where we danced in front of you. We fell from grace and watched the hope'fall from your face. This isn't me i used to say. All the love was so gone. It feels good to be alive. I've been dead for so long: and all the broken promises. I can't face. Afraidif someone notices, I lose my place. Fractured, broken, paralyzed. I need some space, tear me open, analyze. This isn't me i used to say. All the love was so gone. It feels good to be alive. I've been dead for so long. Wake up screaming, I'm awake and dreaming, And i won't stop breathing until my heart stops beating. This isn't me, i used to say. All the love was so gone, It feels good to be alive, I've been dead for so long

Mediocre and barely caustic.

Mediocre is what the masses idolize, apparently the bar is higher here. I value your opinion, only beacuse you are the only only person to give one, so i will try harder to produce paradime shifting mind bending thought provoking writings of poetic mastery.
