i’m parting the sea between brightness and me
before i drown myself and everyone and everything
i got my hands behind my back
with two fingers overlapped
because i can never keep my word
and i share with the undeserved
for some cheap acceptance in return
the water will shape the sides
i’ll walk with my head held high
and when it all comes crashing in
it will be worth it, if i’m still breathing
if actions speak louder than words
i’m the most deafening noise you’ve heard
i’ll be that ringing in your ears
that will stick around for years
