It's not a crime if you want to leave
When the feelings weigh like lead to the bone
The obtuse anthropology
Of the things we value down to the microbe
Now you're pressed up against the wall
Cutting figures of the tired and alone
Unimpressed with the certainty
Just like children tying rags to the flagpole
Give me twenty minutes
Settle in the sun
You'll begin to bask in me
See what I become
I don't give forgiveness
Help you come undone
You'll become a cast of me
Melting into one
Losing sight of who you want to be
And the nameless nerves bite at your feet
Take a picture for posterity
Right before it fades in hushed retreat
Give me twenty years
Separate the soul
You can leave the past to me
Futures left untold
Leapt beyond the ceiling
Kept beneath the tongue
You can feel the past and me
Melting into one
Poison bleeding through the wire
Analgesic camouflage
