the end of days (internal dialogue)

did you say
you're a stranger to this world
a fly ensnared in a tangled web of spiders,
or that you love me?
yes, i know
of course my charms are as drugs
pacify the pain
steady the ship
destined for despair
save you from yourself.
what did you say
i am full of sh#t again
head so deep down in it
i only hear what i want to hear
see what i want to
and that i am the one who fits in this world
like a head in a pinhole
like a tank in a manhole
like a man ... on fire
and i am
god knows i am
burning
from within
caving in
no air
no light
 wait
wait
i said wait
did you say all that
or am i thinking it
did you scream
that you are drowning
or is it me?
