In Search of the Slump Buster

as winter grows old,

you still leave me cold,

but feeling so sold

on everything that you are.

and you could be my

felicity, my

epiphany, my

reason for wishing on stars.

and how should i know

how you feel below

the surface you show?

you're like a house of cards.

and if you fall tonight,

and i'm there by your side,

will i still be deprived

of all those things that you are.

is it smart to get so caught up in this?

is it smart to break myself like this?

cuz i'm going insane and you made me this way

and i've never felt like this before

you make me crazy, it's been so bad lately

but all i want is more.

as spring unfolds, i

keep such a close eye

on feeble foresight

that keeps me in such disarray.

i dig my graves deep,

then lay myself to sleep

to fulfill prophecy,

because i just know today

will leave me empty,

so fucking empty.

and then especially

when you come walking my way

and i'll remember how

i'd thought so damn loud

then drowned my words out

with a silent charade.

you're everything that i've taught myself to want in someone

and you could be the one to break me out of this slump

you're everything that i've taught myself to want in someone

you're in the bloodstream; you're making this heart pump
