when i was in high school i was
a smart and mediocre studentand when i was in college
i was a smart and good studentand then mental illness came
like a fucking bullet some asshole
shot into the air on new year’s eve
that landed through my head
a mile awayand now i am…
We have the world on our hands and we're not even close to being Atlas.
Empty, empty house
with all your lights on
all your ghosts awake
you’re still
empty, empty house.I’d light a fire,
turn on the TV and the radio
plug in the iPod to the fancy speakers
wake up the neighbours,
wake up the neighbourhood
keep the doors open
for the breeze to rankle the windchimes
but the pervasive silence in you
won’t be broken becauseempty, empty house
with all your lights on
all your ghosts awake
I’m still this empty.Empty, empty house.
