Silence

My head is a busy place.

There's always a ton of thoughts zipping around,

Trying to organize them and failing.

There's always a song stuck in my head

Because I live with music

In music

I embody it.

N0w

My brain is silent.

I don't have any thoughts.

A single emotion

Is all that's there

And I feel hollow

Useless.

There isn't any music in my head

And I need there to be.

I need a song.

To fill my heart with other people's problems.

I want to run away from my own.

Silence

But the worst possible kind.

    Story of my life

    I could pretend to be happy

    When the world is ending

    And you'd all believe me

    I'm a great actor

    But never onstage

     

    I can say I'm happy for you

    Congrats that's so cool

    When under it all

    It's hard

    It's hard

    It's really hard

    When there are so many people to balance all the time

    So many personalities

    So many conversations

    Overlapping

    Talking over each other

    So many big emotions

    I think

    I think you make me really happy

    I think it’s sort of all-consuming

    I think I want to be with you every second

    Of every day

    I think maybe what keeps me up at night

    Is replaying you

    Replaying us
