Something's Missing

in art •  6 years ago 

Turned around
Inside this place
The stillness is my friend
It's pretty empty here
Inside this place
The blame it keeps me in

I could vanish
Right in front of you
Hide behind the things
I never say to you
If I had a voice
That I could find
Open wide, and no, there's nothing

Something's missing here
That something's disappeared
And I don't think I really care

I might have had a place to stand
Somewhere relevant
I think that time has passed
If it was ever even there at all

If I had a voice
That I could find
I'd open wide, wide, wide
For all the lies

I won't disobey
Never disagree
I'll lie right down and make the way

I've got my fist made tight
It's right down here at my side
Full of everything I wished I would have
When I wanted to
Full of rage, and impotent

But I know I'm right
I know
I know
I'm right

Something's missing here
That something's disappeared
It's something in the mirror
I just don't want to see
