After Thought

We hold our breath in and try to keep it still
Have we forgotten how to stop?
Shut eyes informing us of what we do want and all that we can do without
We hold our breath in and try to keep it still
Letting synapses hold their spark
Shut eyes informing us of the pathways marked, subtly lit up in the dark
I held my breath in and tried to keep it still
Counting the fault lines on my heart
Tectonic warning, patterns I finally caught taking my time in After Thought

Present me in present tense
I want to cradle myself in loneliness
My name will be my iron fence
I made my bed, I made my mess

And now I know to keep it closed
Stay away from my window
I think it's better like this
And now I know to keep it closed
Leave me alone
Stay away from my window
I think it's better like this
