Lord, I saw something today,
That made me cry.
A thirst for sadness, a hunger for chaos,
Highly strung and waxing poetic
Like those golden boys with their golden guitars
Smoking and singing, “Remember who you are.”

It was my face.
Fading into a lackluster light,
No fanfare to ease the sight.

I’ve seen it somewhere before
When it was supposed to be doing something important.
And today, I captured hope in my pocket,
Though I know there’s a hole in the seams
And this is all I really have left to lose
And if this is it, maybe then, I’m through.

Come on God, do I seem bulletproof?
