Carpenter.
Broken beyond repair...
Cracked, and tarnished.
Like a piece
of furniture,
no longer varnished.
Laying helpless, scared.
Worrying about things
in which we could
never be prepared...
Am I heartless, or cold?
Because I don't
react well when you
try to remold.
You're not meant
to feel humble.
So please just sit back
and watch my pieces crumble...
.... Because I never asked you
to be my carpenter.
Cracked, and tarnished.
Like a piece
of furniture,
no longer varnished.
Laying helpless, scared.
Worrying about things
in which we could
never be prepared...
Am I heartless, or cold?
Because I don't
react well when you
try to remold.
You're not meant
to feel humble.
So please just sit back
and watch my pieces crumble...
.... Because I never asked you
to be my carpenter.
