Denial
And so I steal from your love,
Feed off tidbits of life
This is all a masquerade.
Death has a raid existing over my heart.
Sunlight is waning, I no longer see
Yet I stumble on to hide
Im dying inside
These moments of automatic
Numb response
Relieve the kinetic loss
Let me smile, let me laugh and deny,
Tonight they all fall apart.
And so I steal from your love,
I have none to return, it’s all gone.
