dead and gone

i see nothing.
i feel nothing.
i start a new life that holds
emptiness and i hold
chills in my hands
i see nothing.

i feel nothing.
yesterday blew away
and i am not looking
back because there's
nothing to look back on
i look forward to a hollow road

nothing is calling for me
i see nothing.
i feel nothing.

smelling chlorine and
overdosing on dark dark thoughts
listening to the same goddamn song
dead and gone
i see nothing.
i feel nothing.

i do not intend to wake up from
this spotlight dream of
a new me
an empty me
i see nothing.
i feel nothing.

and it's better this way.
