This is how rejection feels. I believe it is brutally unpleasant for everyone.
It’s the thought that kills.
So please, hide the pills.
See the pain it instills?
And the unpaid bills?

The clock turns forever,
But never say never?
Another year older;
I'm Indiana, she is the boulder.

Death wants to live,
But only inside me.
The truth's locked up tight,
If examined, there's a fee.

It crawls and it creeps,
Celebrates its destruction.
I can’t close my eyes
Due to stabbing eruption.

The casket cant close fast enough,
My heart and soul are shredded.
The remains of my sheer hopefulness,
Once alive, is now beheaded

Not everyone's aware of the holes that it leaves
Or the path to the mind in which it perceives.
The thoughts of my romance that once were achieved,
are now raked in a pile and burned like they’re leaves.

I’d rather be a blunder in a roaring thunder
Than an innocent bird in a buffalo herd.
My wisdom is two faced, it lies and it steals,
The force of a semi with skull-flattening wheels

Don’t say it’s okay.
Don’t talk about fish.
I can’t stand to hear
That we are granted one wish.

In today's world, it will never be right.
People are blinded from what deserves sight.
We limit ourselves to the image on TV
The blind all have sight, but the visioned can’t see.
