You are jumping to conclusions
I am falling into line
You are driving fast at answers
I am leaning on you hard
We are terrified of freezing,
To stop swimming is to drown
So the muscles keep on pummelling
The skin into the ground-
You are worried you’re replaceable
I’m scared that you are not,
I am sleeping here alone,
While you are only waking up.
There are big lies for the big stuff
There are small lies for the ants
And there are middle lies,
all middle-sized,
to keep in broken hearts.
