It’s been a long road to get back home
My two feet have barely even hurt
Now that I am here all they’ve seem to do is bleed
I’ve searched for the wounds and saw no broke skin
But the red keeps pouring out
i am able to mend what is broken
i am able to put the pieces back in place
Back how they were when it, it was brand new
But with this blindfold on, I can’t make it whole again
Im waiting, and searching, and crawling, and hating, and lying, and pushing, and waiting, and drinking, and crying, and pacing, and screaming and dying waiting for you
I’m waiting, and hiding, and punching, and puking, and waiting, and sweating, and aching
Trying to fucking wait for you
This fracture has pulled you away from me
I can push everything standing in the way
Push it into the ground and build a bridge
But time will turn this crack into a cannon
And soon I’ll be too far away for me to even see you
Too far away to reach out and grasp your hand
You are the author of this story that is being played out
I sit in amazement unfulfilled with the end
And now that the last word has been written in stone
I wish I could have left the fucking bookmark in before the last page
Are you ready to spark the match that lights this book up into flames
