biting off more than you can chew again
you're just a child
and all you know is
that it's sweetness brings you
close to tears
each time you can't resist
and some will never know it's taste
you're flying high
oblivious to what it does
it's eating you away
and it moves much faster
than you can view
it's eating you away
and some will never know it's taste
some will never know it's taste
take a breath
and tear it out (up?)
it's not enough
as the sky gets nearer
so does time
you'll never know
what you left behind
the only way is down
as the sky gets nearer
so does time
you'll never know
what you left behind
the only way is down
???ing into dust
pulling me under-
ground into a place
where there is no air to breathe
pressing down (deep?) into the mire
and it's suffocating thought
gaining ground
towering over
chasing me
through my mind
drowning me
again
nobody's home
drunk on a bottle of ???
leave me alone
consuming the town
riding around
with your head in your hands
soon you'll be chasing yourself
look at yourself
sweating and smelling
like somebody else
everything fits
something or nothing ???
solution ???
i can't recall the colour of the sky
but that's not important
we were walking down the hill
when i noticed that you were limping
so i bent down to examine your paw
i can see something
a speck of white in your pad
i've got it in between my fingernails
it's growing
i'm pulling it
it's growing
why doesn't it hurt?
why doesn't it hurt?
hurt?
it came out cleanly
there was no mess
a gigantic anchor made out of bone
we left it at the side of the pavement and walked on
i could hear you laughing
Corrections to andy, thanks.
