Unfortunate

Endless lines cut and wind
Follow til they meet the sky
Then dissolve and redesign
What's left we leave behind
Only light knows how to fade
How unfortunate -- time given away
Every fold tears at the break
Every shell will perforate
So take a deep breath, my friend
And hold on to what you can
When there's nothing to see
There's nothing to save
All the takers are so good at looking away
In low light, eyes tired
Hellbent to rewire
Steadfast, on the sly
Don't you dare put your hands to the fire
Burned out the pages so we'd disappear
We're still here

When it's not the answer that you want to find
Tear it up and swallow every line
Hey, can we get real
Were we ever really here
Did we ever get close
We never see it coming
Do we just get buried cold
Endless lines
Cut and wind
Make their way through the haze
Redirect, redesign, rearrange
What's left? What's left we leave behind
How unfortunate
We're wishing cracks away
