Unfamiliar

out of my mind
out of mind
been thinking so much
i think i ran out of mind
you consume most of it
well maybe not you in particular
but it's like no one knows me
my reflection says i'm so unfamiliar
i can't keep venting to the shadows
i can't keep being vocal when no one's listening
i can't keep pretending i'm not passionate
truly, the falseness is sickening
the nonchalant, the cold
the hate and the pain
you said you'd ride with me
but i'm always alone in this lane
it's like i'm unseen around here
i can display my body but my soul's invisible
everything i desire, stolen
but my love's residual
it's the one pure thing i have to offer
it's been fossilized and hidden away
but i'll uncover it for you
but that's not what you wanted to take
take my patience, take my happiness
leave me trying to nurture the broken
such a pushover, way too nice
filled with so many words unspoken
so it's all continuous
is the world really to blame if you keep allowing it to happen
maybe i'm the one who brings sanity
and it's the world that makes it maddening
i really don't know
the oblivious and the ignorance is so destructive
i'm like the tomb in the falling pyramid
trying to keep my riches from being corrupted
my poorly maintained heart
it's really pathetic when you see it
or maybe that's what makes it perfect
the fact that it's still beating
after attacks on it
challenges it's faced with
always coming back
after the ice it's replaced with...
