reinventing my exit

[tobi @jediocre]

Youth is all about anxiety. Never thought of growing up would be this sad.

[tobi @jediocre]

broken glass cut me to sleep ,
wounds are dissected so
deep
I don't want to wake up
I need this blood to warm
my hands
and you don't have to understand
you just got me all wrong

[tobi @jediocre]

The truth is you could slit my throat
And with my one last gasping breath
I'd apologize for bleeding on your shirt

[tobi @jediocre]

So clear like the diamond in your ring
Cut to mirror your intention
Oversized and overwhelmed
The shine of which has caught my eye
And rendered me so isolated
So motivated
I am certain now that
I am

Vindicated

[tobi @jediocre]

When she's sleeping on the sofa
When she's laying in her Sunday best
When she's turning over Friday
I could swear I'm sleeping less and less.

[tobi @jediocre]

The moments died, I hear no screaming
The visions left inside me are slowly fading
Would she hear me, if I call her name?
Would she hold me, if she knew my shame?

[tobi @jediocre]

your spotless instincts are valid, we co-exist

[tobi @jediocre]

Identify what's yours and what's mine,
The rest will be our secret.

I won't apologize for what is right,
I'm just letting go
of what might've been.
