tonight

I said just go again
Maybe I’m too ambiguous, the supreme subject of your distress
And it’s not so hard to be aloof
Brain on my sleeve, this abrupt mess that I get into
We go on all the time
Maybe it’s hard today but it’s still better than the rest
When we’re both so far away
I’m stuck with a depleted brain or a heart repressed
And I wish you were here with me
Because I’d hide behind you shamelessly
At least tonight
I said just stay a while
Maybe you appear stoic or more stable than I could admit
Fluorescent margins, we’re born on edge
Formally brain-dead
We reside behind, forget ahead
You won’t, you won’t, you’ll never say
What you’re thinking about most everyday
And your function masks your sentiment
Your laugh conceals your discontent
