a mend to amend

you don't have to send stern whispers at strange children
scan your exam for mistakes
comb the shore for long-lost footprints
shame yourself by trading gossip with martyr's names
string your bow with saints & spirits
an empty quiver asks 'what the hell were you aiming for?'
you aren't crying over skinned knees
just the bouquet of all your missed opportunities
what's the point in scolding children
when you're the last remaining member of your tribe?

in my data-driven home (hole)
in my imposter's camouflage
are you holding a gun? is this tape recorder on?
check the bottom of my shoes
no vacation is soundproof
the only way for us to be complete
is to remain unfinished

how long does it take to break this body in? i want to be told what to think
how long does it take? Stitch this mask to my face. i want to replace my identity.
i guess i gaslight myself into thinking it helps when it doesn't help
how long does it take to break this body in? i want to be told how to feel
how long does it take to get rid of the taste? i want to be told it's not real
i guess i gaslight myself into thinking it helps but it doesn't

we've filmed enough to scratch the corners
counting thoughts before they hatch
we've filmed enough exploding cameras
swipe right to light the match
i never thought i'd be glad to have scars (stars) on my face
from wounds unsewn
now i'm drawing hearts on the beams of a gargantuan playground
all alone
now i'm drawing hearts on the beams of a gargantuan playground
all alone

stick to the story
stick to the script
the earth is on a spit & roasting quick
when nothing will be the same
you can brush your teeth of it but still it stains
i'm sorry it's not your fault
it's not your fault i'm sorry
on the fly
& at wit's end
it's an unsurpassed deception we must mend
& with nothing quite the same
you can wash your hands of it but still it stains
i'm sorry it's not your fault
it's not your fault i'm sorry
