Kitchen Floor

No will to live, long to fill yourself with
Lies that barricade, you hide behind
No one sees in first-person
What you do, who's knocked you down, or fucked you up

When you collapsed there on that kitchen floor
Miles below what you've tried to ignore
All the dates you saved and the magnets placed fade to grey
There's the ceiling fan and the whimpering dog
The sun shines on the uncut lawn
But you feel the same as a rainy day
With one ear to the floor

You made plans to leave someday
But your east coast blood and brains are likely designed to stay
Heard an old man tell his tale
Teary eyed he speaks of love and how it fucks you up

When you're lying there on that kitchen floor
Cool tile on your cheek, ear, and jaw
Tempted to attempt a prayer right there in his name
All the crumbs that rolled just out of reach
The words you weren't sure would even hit the fan
Start to sound insane
With one ear to the floor
