whats left (thoughts on thoughts)

These drinks go down like water
Its all bright lights from the floor
You can’t go lower than where you
Just when you thought that’s where you’d been

My body feels so sick
My thoughts are poisonous
You don’t want to taste this fear
You don’t want this at all my dear

For once I stand alone
Standing by myself outside the door
A smile and a wave won’t do
I need you to hold me close
And tell me there’s something left inside here

An empty cavern I call a chest
Nothing but pain and weakness
Where am I left
What have I left

I’m holding on but barely now
You say your prayers under breath
Why would this be aloud
No one knows and no one asks

Now I can’t stand alone
Outside in this fucking cold
I need you to hold me close
And tell me there’s something left inside me
