Half-Silvered

've been here before
This feels just like home now
This side of the wall
Is everything i know, while
You see what i show
You i never see though
You pretend we're close
But i'm nobody's hero
I'm by the glass now, one side is see-through
You can see me, but i don't see you
I feel insecure
Gave you power to help me or break me beyond what I've been through
Berate me one day
And the next you don't hate me
You don't lose shit, whether you stay or betray me
As long as i'm still entertaining, you could get something
Soon as i'm not? you'll move on then
But i bleed too
And when you step away from the glass, i don't disappear
My life ain't an anecdote
You're not entitled to my smile
Yo, let's get it clear
I don't owe you shit
Certainly not my love
Some days you give me the strength to hold the sky up
Other days you drain me of my blood
I've been here before
This feels just like home now
This side of the wall
Is everything i know now
You see what i show
You i never see though
You pretend we're close
But i'm nobody's hero
Everybody's an authority on me apparently
Except for me
Treat me like you've ownership
It's baffling any moment y'all could corner me and laugh at me
Or instead choose to treat me cordially
With flattery see
I ain't seeking glory on this journey that i'm traveling
You're indelicate
Your tongue is foreign
Soaked in apathy
I don't deny responsibility
I'm posed to navigate but let's try address control more accurately
You on the other side
Judging photographically
Hoping that i dance and open up unabashedly nothing you could lose
I could lose my whole capacity to move
It's the truth
Let us not ignore reality
I've no fucking clue what your story is, and actually?
I don't give a deuce
We all corny and inadequate
And while i have some power left
Let me add that when i die
You'll make it about yourself
