own the beating of my heart

i'm ashamed of the way your songs and your words

song for when you've lost all your friends and can't remember where

scraps of affection are all that i got
(all that i get)
too proud to beg
too cold to bend
too shamed to say
too much
(wasn't good enough)
it's all over in facts and charts
figures and statistics
(lies and damn lies alike)
less than angry more than sad
stuck between screaming till blood comes out and sewing my lips shut
emptying my guts the hard way
writing it fast and hard
or sad and slow
(so sick of love songs)
when i've never fall and never will
fate is invisible and more cruel for it
doom is certain when walking off cliffs
but flying is always an option
(just decide to never die)
it's harder and easier and more in the middle
do what for who and when and how
heart vs soul vs mind vs body
but what if they're all served
just harder in different ways
or just setting myself up for certain failure
better to never try and never fail than to try for something possible
or always try for the impossible and fail anyway
(failure is the best revenge)
