My foot has snapped
Don‘t fetishize the shit I say
Just watch the way I move
Don‘t watch the way I do my thing
Dismiss my fading youth
I walk atop, these legs of ash
Will never bring me far
My crumbling towers made of words
I‘ll keep them in a jar
Joke‘s on me, a joke of a man
Making everybody smile
And when it‘s dark
I entertain myself
And giggle for a while
I never lived
I only smoke
I seldom leave this house
I‘ve wasted years
Convincing you
To never leave this house
The piece of shit I strive to be
Will always be below me
I hop on trains but never sober
Always searching home
I never talk to other folk
I always clutch my phone
I never see myself this way
I only write it down
Another round, another town
I lost too many dogs
I think it‘s all related now
The market might collapse
My foot has snapped
I cannot walk
I‘ll never run away
And when it heals
I‘ll still go back
To paths I‘ve crossed before
