Picture Me At Ease (Angel of Sadness)
Picture me at ease
Think of me enjoying one last breeze
The characteristics in my personality
so hard to please
Saturday mornings it’s Ric D’s
Another mother
trying to feed her family from her knees
It’s all good in your eyesight
But you and I
were born to stand on the other side of right
And I can’t reach for heaven
For the statistics say I’m only five, seven
I just want you to picture me at ease
Think of me enjoying one last breeze
Fact is after the hugs, kisses, and unfortunate risk
Yes my dreams will shatter
The past is made
yet the future remains a broken pattern
My only token is plastic leather, “Plather”
I’ll be here, therefore and after
Someone to grasp you, embrace your tears
But picture me at ease
Just think of me enjoying one last breeze
And it’s the same depressing song
That keeps us stretching past the wrong
Smiles and guilt trips
cause we are only stressing to live long
Better yet it’s a blessing to rest at home
My can tin’s filled with nothing
My palms is blistered, my misery telling me to toughen
I’m living to die
So I don’t often bother with breathing
Nonsense is adolescents teething
But picture me at ease
Think of me enjoying one last breeze
