Before I go away
Like painful thoughts of yesterday
I want to say
I thought I was past the bridge burning age.
Like a doctor I will focus my efforts on those I can save.
Like a fake knight I know I'll imagine a dragon to slay.
My sword is a pen that I dropped through a hole in the page.
I know I should relax
I'm trying my best
I guess that all this time I was resisting a rest
I guess that it's fine.
Tell another lie, look me in the eye.
At best, I'm just a frustrated student who keeps failing the test.
Now on the count of ready, set, fade away, I'll fade away.
Good luck with finding me.
By the time you blink I'll be as gone as gone can be
No one has to know
There's no such thing
As no one has to know
When yes means no.
