IMITATION

Let me turn

and I turn you

And not me

Let me burn

And I burn me

And not you

Let me choose

And I choose you

And not me

Let me lose

And I lose me

And not you

There are too many reasons

For Imitation

There are too many cases

Of limitation

If I could swallow

I would swallow myself

And then spit

If I could follow

I would follow myself

And then quit

If I could borrow

I would borrow myself a veil

If I could drop my sorrow

I would drop my sorrow and set sail

There are too many reasons

For Imitation

There are too many cases

Of limitation

So is it that I can't accept my true skin

that I can't figure out how to give in

Or is it that I'm out of approval

Is it that I require renewal

There are too many reasons

For Imitation

There are too many cases

Of limitation

DRAINED

I am drained

I see your excitement

I try to make it vanish

I hear my own lament

I try to make it flourish

Distorted and disarmed

In a wreck of a body

Dull hollow and harmed

Do I count as somebody

I see your eager

I try to tie you down

I sense my own trigger

I don't deserve your crown

In lack of nourishment

All color runs out of me

Where is my encouragement

All I dream of is to flee
