Disappear

No matter what I do

Nothing looks right in this space

I fill the floor with fittings I fancy

And trim the walls with memories I couldn't erase

You'll play the white pawn

I'll anticipate your next move

And after some rearrangements

I've found there's simply no extra room

But I'm haunted by your apparition

It's my fault by my admission

That you've found your way back here

So now finish up your business

'Cause I really don't need this

I wish you would disappear

So I'll pay no mind

To the fact that you've unpacked

You've far too much baggage in tow

For a megalomaniac

I get cold in your presence

And I can see right through you

I've learned that scars can fade away

And I was hoping you would too

But I haunted by your apparition

It's my fault by my admission

That you've found your way back here

And you'll call me by my name

Find some things to rearrange

I just wish you'd disappear

I will exorcise

Before you realize

I will not compromise myself

You don't make me tremble

Not nearly terrified

I won't let you prey on my mind

You'll find me every night

Listening to all your cries

They get progressively severe

But I'll close my eyes

As you send shivers down my spine

And eventually you'll disappear
