Privileges
I'm eating dinner alone.
I'm writing face down on the table.
Crossing vowels spilling over consonants.
I'm waiting hungry like a drone for something worth moving for.
Why am I so still, so shrill? Why can't I show what I'm made of?
Dirty socks fill my drawers.
Empty glasses provide company.
I make this mess so I can lift my hands for the inclination.
I've had enough of the heat.
I want to wear my coat again.
How can I erase what I have misplaced?
I am so glad that you are not around.
I am sleeping alone.
To the sound of war drums.
And the voice in my head speaking in third person.
I seem more so like a dream but I can't get it right.
I rewrite over and over and over.
Why can't I just fall in your line?
Why can't I just see that light?
Cause I don't believe in war or god or poetic ammunition.
I've had enough of the heat.
I want to wear my coat again.
How can I erase what I have misplaced?
I am so glad that you are not around.
I'm so fucking sick of exit signs.
Kevin slow down this is my exit.
I just want to be no one else but me
Cause I am too proud to take advantage of your privileges.
Your privileges.
I just want to be no one else but me
cause I am too proud to take advantage of your privileges.
Your privileges. I just want to be no one else but me
cause I am too proud to eat another meal alone.
I'm writing face down on the table.
Crossing vowels spilling over consonants.
I'm writing face down on the table.
Crossing vowels spilling over consonants.
I'm waiting hungry like a drone for something worth moving for.
Why am I so still, so shrill? Why can't I show what I'm made of?
Dirty socks fill my drawers.
Empty glasses provide company.
I make this mess so I can lift my hands for the inclination.
I've had enough of the heat.
I want to wear my coat again.
How can I erase what I have misplaced?
I am so glad that you are not around.
I am sleeping alone.
To the sound of war drums.
And the voice in my head speaking in third person.
I seem more so like a dream but I can't get it right.
I rewrite over and over and over.
Why can't I just fall in your line?
Why can't I just see that light?
Cause I don't believe in war or god or poetic ammunition.
I've had enough of the heat.
I want to wear my coat again.
How can I erase what I have misplaced?
I am so glad that you are not around.
I'm so fucking sick of exit signs.
Kevin slow down this is my exit.
I just want to be no one else but me
Cause I am too proud to take advantage of your privileges.
Your privileges.
I just want to be no one else but me
cause I am too proud to take advantage of your privileges.
Your privileges. I just want to be no one else but me
cause I am too proud to eat another meal alone.
I'm writing face down on the table.
Crossing vowels spilling over consonants.
