numb







Metaphor for a missing moment
Pull me into your perfect circle

One womb
One shape
One resolve

Liberate this will
To release us all

Gotta cut away, clear away
Snip away and sever this
Umbilical residue that's
Keeping me from killing you

And from pulling you down with me in here
I can almost hear you scream

Give me
One more medicated peaceful moment
One more medicated peaceful moment

And I don't wanna feel this overwhelming
Hostility
Because I don't wanna feel this overwhelming
Hostility

Gotta cut away Clear away
Snip away and sever this
Umbilical residue
Gotta cut away Clear away
Snip away and sever this
Umbilical residue that's
Keeping me from killing you
Keeping me from killing you

groundwork

i slipped on my own two feet
running too fast into you
and the ground knocked the wind out of me
i was so high up
so i lay here on the ground
you by my side barely able to move
we make eye contact that says "why"
and was i only aloud this one mistake this time
i scream to be heard
when all i needed was a whisper
and now i cant remember you
remember what made me beam
i want to go back to the beginning
start again
take back all the things i couldnt understand
what made me run so fast and fall so hard
and know what i know now
that you are someone worth waiting for
worth my patience
worth my letting go
ill wait this time to lay the groundwork
i will help you up and set you free
to come back one day stronger
and if you never come here again
i will still love you
because its truly all i can do
the future is unsure
and the present is a mess
but
i see you
i saw you
and you are beautiul
