A Better Time And Place

CodeRiot

you tell me that there's something wrong with me
that I can never make believe
that there's something deep inside of me
it's clawing at my throat
it's digging at my thoughts
entering my vocabulary
it's nothing I can hide

something down in your throat
tells me there's some sort of aging doubt

give me the light
I'll carry you home
Give me the might
to carry you on my own
just smile and say thank you
it's all I need to go on
despite all this outer turmoil

you tell me that you hate my innards
that I can never create a scene
tempting me into this argument again
it's so fucking pathetic
it's nothing I want
you cannot draw this shit
outta my thoughts
I will not speak up
I cannot lie
I won't tell you anything
to make your hate justified

it's hard to believe
there's a light at the end of the tunnel
any more cliche sentiments
and I'd feel like it's about time you shut up
but no color or shape of words
could ever contain the feeling
it escapes in the air
like bottling up something unreal
something down in your throat
tells me there's some sort of aging doubt

give me the light
I'll carry you home
give me the might
to carry you all on my own
just smile, and say thank you
it's all I need to go on

moreandmore

thank you

justam

Smile and thank you. It looks like moreandmore has you covered, but I'll say it too.



Thank you!
