Gnawing Teeth

Back and forth
Back and forth
In between
I’m pretty cool
I’m a fool
I cover it up
I’m hard to read
And I’m messed up
I think you’re way above me on
A throne and I’m the lowly one
The lonely one
But I turn around
And seem like ice but I wake up screaming
In my head
I’m crazy; I will lay in bed
And blame me
For what I don’t got
And build up
Problems, problems, walls
To then tear down
My hormones ebb and flow on their own
When they’re fast I find myself alone
Frustrated, want to be elated
The visible spectrum is overrated
Want UV light
Stars in my heart
I worry for us being apart
My heart freezes over
And I sink low
Controlled by hormones’ ebb and flow
My feeling is blasted out of my head
My heart’s all wooden like it’s dead
The shining lights they just misled
And I’m scared to be holding a broken thread
I twist and turn the knots internal
Sleep will not cure every state
Hungry but no appetite
I’m full and I am now too late
Stupid pendulums’ forces swing
Like a wind unexpectedly
I’m on wings
It stops, I stop, remain on ground
Stay low – and still – and make no sound.
