Tri-Me

I need to step outside

Another day

Marks another way

Marks a new reason to hide

It's true when you slip

You slide

On the ground

Been pushed down by this

Primitive pride

My voice a stifled symphony

My veins pump

Liquid lethargy

But those that can avert casualty

Do not acquire sympathy

Step aside

Cause I want off this ride

Black hole ate the crippled cry

Of me, myself, and I

The vacuum is picturesque

For those who can pass the test

I may be turning blue

I may have some work to do

But try me

Tri -me

I detest this new dichotomy

To love to hate

The light in me

Too loud to hear

Too bright to see

The incest of infamy

To be or not to be

So I may be tainted in my truth

When I claim I'm bullet-proof

But every half-assed assault

Has been a death by default

Any day now

You will see

The singular me

When three become one

And one becomes enough

I'm blowing up

Taking off

Coming down

I'm not enough

It never starts

It never stops

A bell rings

A piano drops

I'm rubbing off

It's sinking in

I'm running fast

I'm running thin

This little bubble's gonna burst

It's me alone

And I come first
