Not a Burden

While it's easier to act
Like you're alright
All the time
You know it still gets hard to hide
Cause the river's welling
Up deep down inside
And you know you're
Running out of time

I'm sorry about the way it ended
Or if you left offended
Some days i smile when i see
You but feel so disconnected
Behind every single
Unfinished sentence
Every unread message
There lies a pain that i regret inflicting
An ignorance i'm unaware of giving off
A state of peace getting
Interrupted by an incoming storm
My karma's right around the corner
Gravity violently flung me out the water
And onto the shore
I'm limping tryna walk it
Off with broken calves
One thing i know i can always
Count on is my shitty luck

But tables turn
So that's just balance right?
You can't have wings
And never fall while
You're learning to fly

Shit, look at the time
I've overstayed my welcome
Give me five and i'll be out
Outta sight, outta mind
Finally out of your life
No more distress for you
I choose to let you be all right

I'm not a burden but i bet
I'll take the weight
Off when i disappear
I'll be like dandruff
When you're showering
Outta your hair
I know i've had my
Inconsistent moments
I'm conscious of the limit
That there is to
My company's worth and all that
Whenever i'm making
It worse, i fall back
We could be on the highway
I'd hop out the car
And roll onto the tarmac
Anything to duck unnecessary conflict
Prefer a calmer tone when there's
Tension that needs resolving
Look, i'll listen, i'll let you talk
I won't pull my fists outta pocket
That's pointless
Our own incompetence'll destroy us
Some things just can't be avoided
I've been embracing the fall
Questioning every choice
When i get back up from the floor

This is just nature taking its course
I know it's over, there's
No reason to stall
If needed, i can find my way to the door
I'll leave my number if ever
You need somebody to call
