Take Down

Dark bring me clarity
A sense of comfort in disguise
A spark for some charity
This blanket I despise

Peer through windows
Double check doors
Lost the strength
To let go anymore

Fear of Awkward
Can’t see me perspire
Just takes one noise
For me to inspire

Feel you watching me
Pretending your not there
Force myself to come to peace
With the intrusive fear

Tell myself I’m not scared
Quickly try to prepare

Light is too dim to
Hold back this dark

My Problems

I don’t know how I’ve become such a problem
I hate what I see
Nothing seems to be conducive about anything to do with me

A strong building with a cracked foundation
Trying desperately to fill myself in
Welcoming only wrecking balls in

Face is bruised
From the broken promises I’ve spewed

I don’t know how I’ve built such a problem
I hate what I see
Nothing is easy about me

Holy house in the middle of a land fill
Trying desperately to stay pure
Preaching to the garbage
Convincing myself I’m sure

Skin is scarred
From the bridges I’ve burned

I don’t know how I’ve grown such a problem
I hate what I see
Thriving to be unstable…You’ll see
