Tether

Looking at a blank sheet of paper
as if words will just appear
I am nothing more than a guy who rambles lazily.
In these truths, it is best for me to grasp my psyche stability
and reach for something to keep me tethered to a surface
Otherwise I'll lose all of the feeling that I have left
And you better believe that number is skinny.
I have been pulling at random wires in my brain
Hoping it'll produce electricity
But all I get is toxic waste
All I think about is pain
If it's cool with you, I'm gonna try
Something else to increase my happiness levels
and become a better man
But don't hold any fucking breaths for me,
because I am completely sure it's a waste of time
And I am no longer who I think I am.
