Parables

Do you know the difference
Between being alive
And letting your heart burn out?
Breathing becomes a chore
And these empty spaces
Leave nothing but room for doubt
Inside your head
You've been trying
To fill these pages
But nothing at all comes out
You've written your ending
But now you're trapped inside
Every thought of you
Just pushes me down
You live your life
Like your bones are glass
Closed eyes for fear
The world may move to fast
Your breaking under the weight
But it makes us who we are
Every time you think of me
I hope you choke
On your own apathy
You'll figure it out one day
Did I make you who you are?
Just hold your tongue
Because it's every time you speak
You break your neck
Tripping over your own words
You live your life in fear
Was your heart still beating?
Were you even thinking
When he fed lines to your head?
When he found his way into your bed?
When you wake up
Do you still dream
Or just live like
The stories you tell me?
I hope you know
That some people still care
It's not me but I know they're out there
Does the world just keep spinning
When you're lying flat on your back?
Are you sure that you're even awake?
Do you know
That you're my only mistake?
