lyrics

don't patronize my pain
it's not in vain
that i suffered
that i carried this weight
when the lights
ran around

the edges
of this place
where i used to hide
where i used to grieve
without you, my dear
into my
crystal splinters museum

swallowing the sun, and it's almost done
the night has come; my time - all i'm left with
pieces of who I used to be
and when I want to look back, I dream

the corners
of this place
where i'm used to hide
where i'm used to grieve
without you, my dear
into my
crystal splinters museum

[wise heart
kind mind,
mouth full
crying light]

this is my way of fighting back:
i rack up, keep safe, recollect
this is the way i feel alive:
all my memories blurred like
a super-8, your childhood friends,
the bitter end,
i tried to swim, you taught me well,
and yet i can't
feel happiness but now i know, joy is not

made to be
a crumb

and have you
changed your life?

have you tried
to stay alive?

i am trying.
