Pale Muses

There's so many things that affect the way I'm feeling
They stay bottled up until the words start spilling
I'm reminded many times like a record steady skipping
To do what I feel and maintain how I'm living
My evils are given but taken all as lessons
It's either sink or swim in these waters to be tested
As I make my descension
It's time for confession
I try to let it go but it's becoming my obsession
The simplest thought that even I can maintain
The friction on my nerves and never worry again
Or I can just pretend like it was all for show
Like nothing ever happened so nobody seems to know
Truth everlasting or why it doesn't grow
Or how it came to be so I guess I got to go
Back to where I'm at because I got to my hold own
At the end of each act with nothing left to show

And it's crazy to think
That each and every blink
Is another second gone and can never be retrieved
So who should I blame?
Or why should I believe?
You wouldn't take it all from me you motherfucking thief
Now every moment passed for sure I'll miss
With their chronic state of calm and everything that they project
It seems like some greed got mixed in with some bliss
That caused a break in mind and resulted in a shift
That leaves me on my own as I begin to steady drift
Deep into the haze as my head slowly lifts
But I'll live
I know I will because I always do
It was just another obstacle to navigate through
It's also clear to see what every piece all amounts to
Just enough to change it up with a brighter out view
And help me realize one thing at a time
One thing at a time
I'm better off without you
