youth

I'm losing interest

Losing the taste in my mouth

I don't see the world

I see it's faults

I don't see the colors

I see the raw chemistry

The formulas that don't mean a thing

The flaws in the programming

The false starts

And the echoing

Pulling skin

And flesh from my smile

The muscles in my mouth

That pull on strings

A wrong thing

A lie

I don't want to be this

I don't want to see this

Fine fine fine fine fine fine fine fine fine

I'm just fucking fine

And I don't like your excuses

I hate your face

I hate your eyes

They're shallow

They're broken inside

I hate this place

And it's all mine

All fucking mine

Mine to change

A restricted youth

I want you to give me

Something to hold on to

But I want to be your equal

I want you to preach to me

Speak to me

Believe in me

I don't want to be the youth

I want to be beside you
