The Blood & The Bones

Yes, hello

Yes, I know

It’s been awhile

Not sure how long

But it’s been

Just long enough

For the numbness

To set in

Yes, I know

I play along

I laugh and I smile

So they think time

Healed the wounds

Because I never

Say your name

Or speak of

The darkness

Once I even tried

To pretend

To let someone in

To maybe end up feeling

But I watched that crash

And burn too

Yes, I know

Because I set the fire

And I felt nothing

I can feel

Nothing

And it’s emptiness

I’m so full of emptiness

And oddly enough

It’s familiar

Yes, I know

That makes no sense

But here I am

And here I’m not

But here I should be

Yes, I know

I really do believe

That this is

All of the nothing

That’s left of me
