Something Stable - Take Care

Beaten broken bruised and shattered bones

Are all I have to show to let you know

That I’ve let myself go

For what seems to be

The lack of inspiration

And a reason to breathe

Falling backwards in my worst attempt to clean up this mess

And loathing in my lack of forward progress

I’ve been Searching for something stable

That I’ll never be able to find

Say what you want about the blood in my veins

I can cope with this pain

If it’s worth all the wait

It’s funny how all these things work out

Searching miles away

For things I haven’t found

Humor every attempt

That I take to make amends

And tie up loose ends

I’ve was searching for something stable

Did that ever cross your mind

You’ve let this stop my breath for the last time

So bury me

And take what’s mine
