your voice travelled through a tunnel
and made its way into my ear
memories flushed my brain
until they grew cold enough for me to freeze
and feel stuck in place
simply disappear
the moon smiled at me
and I could hear it chuckle afterwards
but another foot of snow fall
couldn't make me any more numb
the melancholy makes the air reek
my nostrils burn, taking it in
and I've become physically weak
I've shattered and rebuilt
and been broken again
into smaller fragments
it gets better, it gets better
up until the next knock out, next time
all I need is a spare moment to get this out

my heart fell in love
and my head just laughed
what made you think you could have that?
my brain melted
what was left of my lungs, collapsed
couldn't process a thought
couldn't scream or breathe
my bones have shifted
my skin has become erased
and now nothing feels right
I remember it so well
cuz it was just 5 seconds ago
that I could actually breathe
I could say anything
but I don't have enough oxygen to speak
I don't care much for this distance
and I'm not looking forward to it
my head is clouded, always making me dizzy
don't get me wrong
I'm adventurous everyday
just daring myself to move
but if all I do is count pennies
then is it really worth it?
one, two
I'm already crying
three, four
now I can't anymore
five, six
all I feel is swollen eyes
seven, eight
I don't feel anything
nine and..
wish I could've made it
to at least a buck
