breaking all the hearts

 

staring off in the distance

and it’s always the wrong

song that comes on

 

an old lover leaving,

breaking all the hearts

 

and soon your demons

are in the corner

laughing

 

you can’t fool them

 

they know you aren’t cut

out for life in this world

 

and no matter how much

you try being positive

it will never work for

you

 

those hands will always

be around your neck

 

you will always be

pinned to the bathroom

floor at your grandmother’s

house

 

therapy never worked

 

the drugs never helped

 

and even alcohol has

turned a cold shoulder

 

thankfully, you know

a guy and you still can

find a vein
