when glass breaks does it hurl itself into a broken future?
the past never stays in it’s place
if the door is locked do you find a window, or break it down?
do you find another way into a place you don’t belong?
do you force your way through, change things irreparably, fall asleep on the couch, waiting?
you can go into the future but you can’t get it back
it was over but it still stung, cut into my heel, digging it’s way deeper and deeper
my future is pretending to forget, remembering is punishing, remembering is punishment
my future is a card you wrote me saying you were sorry
my future is putting words to a past i couldn’t understand
tell me not to think about it, it’s still there, purer still
tell me not to think about it and i am still afraid
and i will still lash out and i will still be angry
doomed to find new ways to extract the things that hurt
pass it down generation to generation soaking into numbness
i want to corrupt it into nothing, remember it into distortion
i want to hide under the bed
i just want to walk barefoot on hardwood
i want you to be proud of me and i never want you to listen to this
