the day I tried to live
I get it, I really do
it was never a song about offing yourself
you could see that straight away
he said he was trying hard
to be normal
hang around people
not live in a cave
not blow it
all off
why are you speaking
backwards
when did you stop making
sense
you'd been crushed down
butted out
less than zero
locked up fucked off
the day you tried to live
you woke up to face
another day
a black hole sun
a little ray of sunshine
does a black hole sun let light in?
a sliver, a shard, a ray...
are black holes
as dark
as artists paint them?
the day I tried to live
I could hear someone
inhaling exhaling
sniffing sighing snorting lines
somewhere over the rainbow
seize the day
things
good times
are possible again
you wake up face the sun
someone's bleached the black hole
toned it down
a shade or two
you face the sun you wake up
I like this one Ktisten!
