lyrics

Your silence has been like rust over the tired
machine of my heart.
I don't know why I let myself fall apart this way.

I can't keep up with the little things -
clothes might stay unclean.
And you just keep breaking the brittle things.
They were bound to be dust anyway.

How can I keep the stupid gaping cave
of my mouth shut
and keep you from hearing the echoes of what I
say to myself?

I don't blame you for trying to forget me and cringing
when you can't.
Discarded like a misshapen peach, you shouldn't have to watch
my flesh rot off.
