Crayola Crayon Canyon
I'm tired of absorbing your depression
like you're the only one on earth who has issues
you think nobody understands your situation..
I don't believe you want anybody to understand
because that's what you believe makes you unique-
In a strange way it has given you purpose in life
makes you special-one of a kind...
the Crayola crayon with the funny name
perched in the corner of the box-forgotten
the canyon that swallows its own echo-
I'm tired of inhaling your depression
I wasn't put on this earth to be a canvas
for your self mashing and blue period slashings..
that's not "my" purpose in life
my purpose is to be accepting of the happiness
that's swirls all around me-
Your depression depresses me to no end
(here comes another of your self inflicted slash floods)
I'm climbing out of your Crayola box canyon..
for good and good luck-
