( numbing the mind rest inside, that hate left unspoken. tasting the truth, it's shy, afraid to be broken- and it's humbling, this pain you feel inside, and it's stuttering, these words that i must try. )

( to shelter your deepest secrets and your darkest demons. you're feeding a monster, but enough is enough. you've taken this too far and i don't know who you are. the ghost is closing in on me, what's the price of admission? no gimmicks for one minute. you fall in love to feel part of the crowd. you fall asleep to dream about yourself away from help. all we have is who we are to someone else. all we are is what we have when we're away from help. )
( and if i cannot save her spirit, dad says i should break her spine. shaking, brilliant, silver-black wings, jesus christ, what prayers these tears sing. wear your hearts out on your sleeves for starlings, starlings. of the least of all of these, are starlings, starlings. )
