Quiet Bullet

Eat a bullet to quiet my demons

Help on the way
Save me from myself

The powder on my fingers
Will live with them through eternity

Dig out of my bunker
Stick the flag of my being
Firmly in my ground

Can’t go out like that
I’m much too handsome
Come around to how it really is

Cast away all the bullshit
Find some joy in dull minutes

But I have ADHD I can’t pay attention
To even myself

You say something to me
My brain is racing somewhere else

Pay attention to the time
Live in yourself like your  dyin

Time is ticking
Can’t put back the sands of time

And turn the glass over
So we have to be on point and make our mark
