Untitled

Who is this person I have become?
Since when do I just sit around,
Waiting for the one?
If only I could make a sound...

But I have no lips, fingers, or teeth.
Everything I have is frozen in concrete.
And since you cannot hear me,
I want you to know, It still cannot be.

What I mean is, you and me.
I feel like we're drowning in the sea.
This is the sea of reality.
Together we cannot escape, you and me.

You're all leeches, every one of you.
So why don't you do what leaches do?
I'll never understand,
How I fell for such a man.
