Rough Edged
It's like the metamorphosis
Doesn't want me to succeed
But I can't embellish on the vibe
Of transition killing me
It's in the air around me
Lingering like the tension in a mood
I'd say that I deserve the disillusion
But to myself I've been so cruel
It's a passion for the transformation
But it leaves the discarded shell so hollow and alone
I walk the world my face conceled and music blasting
Rewinding memoirs in my head of where I've roamed
I feel the urge to speak but no necessity
Because the vein can never pulse amongst the dead
And the city sleeps amongst these kindred listeners
A better conversation piece than most of my friends
The feeling of a woman beside you is irreplacable
But at best this is a battle I have long since lost
For the edges adorn my skin, rough and jagged, yes indeed
And for this the price I pay is indeed a heavy cost
