I know the rest is gone

Take the time to read, fill my life with art again.
Really let it be and understand that I have been
scared of the life I want, terrified of all my dreams
Spiteful toward the ones I love
tell myself it seems fine for now

This is my best, all that I have
anything more would break me down
and after finding how I hurt myself
I think I know how I hurt your heart

I know the rest is gone
but what about these cupboards

Self-Separation Anxiety

How am I not myself? Like Jude and Dustin
Where did I lose myself? you lose yourself like Robin
I am always me, so is there anything to recover?
I can't get back what I have lost, so I will have to start again
A new direction is the only way
May join the circus like I always dreamed

I'm scared of everything
I don't trust any part of the world
Only I can trust if I want to feel it, If I want to know it
and without my self, there is no I to trust you
Somehow I can still be scared without having an I to be afraid
by my separated I can still have fear

My hands are still here, dumb and duller
My spine, it still works, stiff and twisted
My legs, they still move, with pain and weakness
My mind, it still makes, slow and fearful

This is really too much work
I can't believe I fell so far
I get so anxious at the thought
of really finding out what I and I are
